Hey everyone, I've been a lurker over in CWI for a while - my wife has a severe attention ***** problem. So, this last sexting episode is enough. I've been to one attorney, and have an appointment with another tomorrow morning. My main problem is that I simply don't have available cash to hire one, but I'm working on that as quickly as I can, and I'm getting help from family as well. This is going to be mostly cut and dried - Nevada has a straight formula for child support, I don't have any retirement, just a couple of cars, and minimal household items/furnishings, which honestly, she could have all of if it came to that. Alimony, who knows, but the problem there is that just doesn't work. She's able enough, but won't do it, and hasn't had a real job of any length since '97. We've been married since 99 but together since before then. So, my income is around 90K, hers is zippo. And she only has a GED. My answer to that is that you can work, yes it'll be a crappy job, but that was your choice, and she was given plenty of opportunity to go back to school or other training, just never took it. The house is a rental, as well. Just wonder how others have handled other parts of this - did you move out before filing? The bank accounts have been split for a while - one of her big time faults is a complete inablilty to manage money - so I split them when we moved here. What about bills/accounts that are in her name? Stop paying now? Does that "look bad" to a judge? I don't know what she will do with regards to custody. Nevada encourages Joint, the kids are 14 and 15, both girls, and would probably choose to stay with her, out of her guilt trips as much as anything else. I'm sure the attorney will have answers to these tomorrow, but this forum has been an excellent place to seek advice, even in lurking mode. Thanks for the help/advice | |||
