A friend of mine went to talk to a divorce lawyer and the lawyer said the wife could get 90% of everything, including retirement, but I think that does not include future earnings. He is giving her a 100% of all they have. Any answers are appreciated.

So I have this friend who has been married to the same guy for 11 years. I recently lost touch with her and just saw her for the first time in 5 years about 2 weeks ago.
She spoke of how she just had to have a breast removed from cancer, and then started telling me about her problems at home.
The guy she’s married to refuses to offer her any money to do anything. As opposed to staying at home and healing well, she’s been doing small cleaning jobs for $50 a day even though she only came out of surgery about 3 weeks earlier. He refuses to give her money for food, or to buy her children things they need. Recently he took the stimulus checks the family received and spent them on what we presume to be pot and a new fish aquarium. My questions is, she desperately wants to divorce him or separate from him so she can have him removed from the house. A lawyer said he needed $2k. Are there any easier ways to do things? We live in Ohio.

Me and my husband have decided to get a divorce and we agree on everything from custody of our 2 yr old son down to who gets the christmas tree. is it possible that we could have the same lawyer so it won’t cost as much? and if we agree on everything will it take a long time for it to be final?

Me and my wife have cell phones and she calls me whenever for what ever. It doesn’t not matter for serious or off the wall the subject is she calls. But don’t ask her for sex. I’m tired, i doing the … laundry, email, dishes and the list goes on. Don’t think about cheating cause I.m married. Women are a joke. I think women’s stupidity in men’s needs is a bigger cause of divorce then money. If more women had sex with their husbands the money issues wouldn’t be so bad!

Child abuse, domestic violence, divorce, some juvenile cases, etc?
Also, what are some law firms in the Atlanta area (or even in the southeast) that are prestigious or have a good reputation? Best law schools in the south?
Thanks!

Is it a fact in NC that parents who have over half of the year in custody, even if it’s only a few weeks more than the other parent are able to claim their children on their taxes? I have my children for 136 days each year. I pay child support. Included in that child support are medical expenses and daycare expenses. I have been given conflicting advice by both the IRS, lawyers, and other divorced parents. The IRS is telling me to submit the forms, claiming one child. If they need additional proof that I am in fact supporting my children financially, they would ask for it. My ex claims that she has the right to claim both children because she has them more days out of the year than I do even though I’m paying child support at the state’s required guidlines. I’m actually paying more in child support that I’m required.
***I fired my lawyer because she DIDN’T include this information in the temp. custody and child support agreement before sending it to the judge. Well…that and she was too friendly with the ex’s lawyer.

Q&A from Yahoo! Answers
I married at 18 and he was 25.
Fast forward to when I am 31. He has an affair. A long one, which was loving. He wished he met her first, she was the One – she met his friends and colleagues – you name it. He ended it when I found out a year later, and hell broke loose. However, he went back to her a few times, before eventually trying to make it work with me.
While we were working on the marriage, the OW has my husband arrested on a pretty serious charge….made sure he suffered for 3 months…then “dropped the charges”. I think that was the final nail in the coffin.
I could not forget what he did with her 2 years ago, plus all the arrest trauma, and filed for divorce this new year.
I have found out that she is the first person he told that I left him. He REALLY seems not to care about the end of this 13 year marriage. He seems to feel so free. However he told her he would not sleep with her again til after the divorce. I thought this was out of respect for me..he wanted to wait..however today I found out this is because he is “not relaxed until the divorce is through, as if the wife finds out I’m seeing you before the divorce, she’ll become bitter and make me pay!”
So this means he WILL be with her once the ink is dry!
Apparently she then cried and said that he “didn’t want” her – he said he did, but she must wait til after the divorce then they can “relax” as he will be “properly single”. He really seemed bothered that she was so upset.
He has told her that he never wants another serious relationship again though. But might he change his mind? They both have their own flats (we sold the marital home)
I also found out that he meets up with her during their working days (they originally met through working closeby). I gather that he is telling her he doesn’t want a relationship with ANYONE but “might” change his mind. But at the very least, he does want to see her (after the divorce so as not to jeopardise his position in court, I guess).
He also told her that “no one” else would get away with speaking to him like she does.
On one hand, I know he is actively pursuing her, even if they are just going on walks, and waiting for her outside her office, but then he says he does not want a relationship and she “may” have to “share” him once the divorce is through.
Obviously he is assuming he will find loads of women to have sex with.
Everyone is telling me that he loves her, but if this is the case, why is he risking her meeting someone else by being wishy-washy with her? Is he only making so much effort because it was good sex, or might he love her?
WHAT PART OF “I AM FILING FOR DIVORCE” WAS UNCLEAR?
“I could not forget what he did with her 2 years ago, plus all the arrest trauma, and filed for divorce this new year.”
