[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've seen this same thing before and it pisses me off, which is why I'm taking the time out of my day to reply to this.

Your higher earning DH may try to rush the proceedings and get you to agree to something quickly so things are not dragged out. But remember, he's trying to control the narrative. You have to take control of the narrative and tell your story of what really happened. Do not act quickly or be pressured to do so which DH will likely try to get you to do. Drag it out and get as much as you possibly can.

They are going to try to make you believe that he has the strong case cause he made more money. That's complete BS. You have a much stronger position here but they don't want you to see that so don't be rushed into trying to get this thing done quickly. Drag it out and get as much money as you can.

But if I drag it out, isn’t that gonna cost me more money?[/quote]

It's a balance. You of course have to be cognizant of your attny fees but also show that you're not just gonna take whatever DH gives you and go. That's the whole part of negotiation. I was taught to always negotiate from a place of power. You need that mindset because that's what you have in this case given what you've explained in this thread.
