Only if you want the judge to think you are a crazy, controlling woman. My ex behaved this way and it helped me get shared custody.

You cannot unilaterally close joint accounts

But you can unilaterally withdraw all the money...

It's amazing how the very first advice women offer other women when a divorce is pending is--STEAL ALL HIS MONEY. RIGHT NOW!

Attention men: Don't get married. This tells you how women view you--as an ATM machine.

Criticism of a gift as justification for a divorce + person who doesn’t want to be married to you + kid is still young = you will be much better off, no matter what.

Honey, you'll not only be okay, but you will come out of this a better person. Let him go. You're young and beautiful (Yes, I'm a mom....but it's still true.)

Close all joint accounts with credit cards. Take 2/3 the money out of any joint accounts but don't spend it all as he'l get 50%, but take it to protect yourself and put it in an account with your name only. Go to the office for child support at the end of the week and file for child support. Then, get a good attorney if he will not negotiate.

If it was earned during marriage, it is not stealing as it is joint money. My husband knows I'd strip all the accounts to protect myself.

Make sure you go after the best financial deal for yourself and your child. Do not be weak on this time and read Chump Lady.

He's absolutely having an affair.

P.S. Listen to all the "cut throat" comments from DC lawyers on this thread. Get a great lawyer early. -BTDT

Try again.

I work in the court system. Many, Many men empty the back accounts and or cancel credit cards than women do. Sorry but statistically you are incorrect.

Another issue seems to be women don't know where their joint monies are??? Or things are only in his name and they both work???
