I feel stupid for even asking this, but when I get served and if everything looks good, do I need to pay a retainer fee for a L? Is it possible to just pay a L a few hundred dollars to look everything over?
Before you receive hers, draft up your own. That way you know what you want. Then you can have a lawyer look them both over and advise you.
Lawyers know the court rules and you don't. That is the biggest issue.
I have been playing with Chat-GPT. It is not a substitute for legal advise, but you can have it review things, draft up documents, etc.
I did draft up my own, at least a preliminary one. Regarding household items/assets, I started creating a list, but my God, the crap you accumulate after 17 years.
So is Chat GPT an app, website, etc? I googled it, but I really don't know what I'm looking for. lol
