Will meet with L again. I have been approved to receive a limited amount of funded legal support given my gradual return to work having been without income and also due to son’s care needs (for whom I am primary caregiver.
I plan to use the legal support efficiently and wisely to support fair treatment of my needs and son’s care. I will impress upon my L what is most important to me and seek to understand what is fair given the law. I will want to seek creative solutions. For example, I do not want to sell the house at this time though I understand that may become necessary or preferable at a later date or I may be in position down the road to buy W out.
Therefore I’m grateful to have this support to fully review my situation from a legal standpoint, and have assistance in responding to W’s volleys. In all of this I am not seeking to drive a D or move us closer in that direction but I need to be informed, prepared and represented. I will consider going a mediation route as well. I do not want to go to court and I must stand up to W and the track we have been on for me.
I need to not live another year like this last one.
