[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On Sunday he yelled at me saying "this isn't working" and has since been hiding out in the guest room. He locks the door and when he is in the kitchen he ignores me and avoids eye contact. He also walks around with a scowl on his face.

I am getting worried. Should I consult an attorney? [/quote]

Lay low. Even if he is acting immature.

Consult 2-3 attorneys (options, likely custody terms, child support terms, costs, timing, housing, family budget, mediation options).

Keep a (digital?) log book of everything odd he says or does

Round up 5 years of bank, investment, tax yearend statements and compensation.

Know your options given the above. Wait for him to file or if he acts up more, you file if at peace with the above.

None of this is how it works. Except the consult a few attorneys, who will tell you this isn’t how it works.

Unless you have cause for to file at-fault, you don’t just randomly file for divorce. Most divorces are no-fault, which means you separate and negotiate a marriage settlement agreement for assets and child custody if there are kids. This shouldn’t be hard since it’s basically 50/50 for both.

There’s zero point to keeping a log of weird behavior unless you just need to journal it for your own mental health. Otherwise, that isn’t relevant to anything.

If you do retain attorneys, yes, there will be a demand for all financial records.[/quote]
