[quote=Anonymous]Plus, forgot to say, it's about so much more than child support -- do they own a house together?  are their names on a mortgage together?  joint credit cards? joint bank accounts?  reitrement funds?  what will they do about college?  physical and legal custody?

Your friend might want to trade away some of these items to maintain others, but she needs a lawyer's advice to know what she's likely to get anyway.

If he's behaving as you say, she'll want to make absolutely sure that all financial ties are severed from a legal standpoint so that she is not vulnerable to his craziness.  For example, if she doesn't get his name off a jointly owned house, all the money he's throwing away on strippers and Vegas can cause him to have creditors seeking to attach or put a lien on his assets.  No creditor will care 5 years from now that they settled their divorce without a lawyer and he hasn't paid the mortgage on the house in 5 years, it will still be viewed as an asset to which his creditors are entitled.
