What she does is open a new seperate a/c and slowly moves funds into there. Then she uses the money to retain an attorney and file for legal seperation. Are children involved ? Are we just talking about the property ?

there are 3 young children involved and property.
How much is an attorney?
Is her next step to secure an attorney?

The next legal step is to get an attorney. I can not help you on the moral or marriageable side of things.

With 3 children and property, she will need an attorney. If he is difficult, an attorney could cost up to 5k when all is done.. but, she can petition to have him pay for legal costs if she has no varible income. Most attorneys will want $1500 as a retainer to get started.
