What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Utah
OK, so my spouse and I decided to get a divorce. She took from our savings $1500 to get a lawyer on retainer. We are trying to sell the house as I can't afford to pay for another place and a house payment too. She hasn't filed for divorce yet, but we both have been through the state mandated "Divorcing Parents with Childern" class.
I have not consulted a lawyer yet. I don't have money to do so. We have pretty much agreed in writing on the household items. I guess I am waiting to see what her lawyer drafts up first when it comes to spousal and child support and other items.
My question is -- Am I being stupid or nieve waiting for her lawyer's proposal? Go ahead, I can take it.
Thanks!
