HE WILL NOT BE FAIR

“Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.”

―WINSTON CHURCHILL

Do not expect decency from your husband in the divorce if he has not been decent to you in the marriage. Many men punish their wives for divorcing them by trying to give them as little as possible in the settlement, even if it means that their children will live in poverty. You have an obligation to look out for your children and yourself, so do not be generous with your husband in the divorce, as you will soon regret it for years to come. Take whatever you are legally entitled to and remember that what you get affects your children as well as you. You need to make your priority taking care of the children and yourself. Later, if your husband fails to pay, it is your responsibility to take him back to court. Do not let him get away with anything. It is not fair to your children or you.

There is a very good chance that he will try to threaten and intimidate you, but you can protect yourself. He may try to insist that you do not hire a separate lawyer to save money or that you settle without attorneys. Both are terrible ideas as the two of you have conflicting interests, and ethically I believe that no divorce lawyer should represent both parties in a divorce. If your husband tries to get you to work it out yourselves to save money, remember that he is a bully and you will end up with very little if you go along with him to avoid additional conflict. The more that you give, the more he will demand.

Now is the time to stand up for yourself and get your own legal advice, especially since you may not understand all of your rights. You will need to educate yourself and get professional advice that is not biased against you. Do not negotiate with your husband about keeping the house or the retirement assets or anything else. If your husband presses you, tell him that his lawyer needs to talk with your lawyer, and you have been advised not to discuss it with him. Do not negotiate directly. If you do, you will lose.
