Thank you for the advice(s). Our accounts were jointly held, now he has a main account (private, secretive), then an joint account that is for all household bills, Daughter’s dance recitals, etc. I have access to that account. So far he has never said “no” if I tell him that we need additional funds. I explained above why I cannot work. Also, I am not very close to my son. If he comes home to live, he will see that I am indeed suffering, and maybe show more compassion for his mother.
The lawyer I met with twice is a very nice lady, however she believes that my husband’s offer is reasonable and that a judge will not give me more.
I prefer to go to trial with a lawyer who is sharp.
If we go to trial, will my husband have to pay both of our court fees? I forgot to ask the lawyer when i spoke to her.
No prenup; we were young and in love.
Also, Thanksgiving, my son chose to go out to dinner with his father. My daughter stayed home with me.
