[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you need to prove? Just end it and leave. Why involve the police?[/quote]

I suspect he has (or believes he has) a financial incentive to want to document abuse. Potentially to get out of a prenup. Otherwise there is no reason to stay. And OP, even if you “lose” money if you are genuine, and you are being abused, it should not be worth it to stay.[/quote]

OP, is this why you’re staying and trying to get evidence?  Because you think it will mean you get more money in the settlement?  Unfortunately, that’s not true. Even if your DW had an assault on record and prosecuted and found guilty, it would still not change the settlement - equity, debts and savings are pretty much split 50/50 as well as retirement accounts.  Get a lawyer ASAP to advise you about what documentation to collect and how/when to file.  (Although, if you’re concerned about your safety, just get out.)

Or, is there another reason you need proof? Do you feel like you need to justify leaving to someone? Do you think she’ll change if there are consequences? What’s motivating you? [/quote]
