[quote=Anonymous]Time to lawyer up. Try Avery/Upton in Rockville, the consult is probably free. They're fair but tough if necessary. Take notes, document everything, keep a parenting journal, take notes from phone calls. Educate yourself on divorce. Save all emails, texts, correspondence. I can tell from everything you've written that you're about to be in a huge world of hurt if you don't get a lawyer and toughen up, stop being "nice". Do WHATEVER you have to do to get a lawyer. You'll either pay now or pay later, and if you pay later, your kids may pay, too. Imagine if they ended up with their dad because after the divorce (that you attained through fair mediation without a lawyer) you were left in a vulnerable position financially and your ex then filed for full custody and you couldn't afford a lawyer then? You're in a better position at the current time so USE IT, do not squander it. Something similar happened to me and my ex sounds a lot like yours. Thank god I had family money that he was unaware of or I'd have been so screwed. Your future ex husband is not the man you married or lived with. He is a total stranger that you don't know at all and you are in a business with him. Do not have that POV at your own peril. I'm sorry for you and good luck, but after the dust has settled, your life may be infinitely better without him. He sounds pretty much like a big jerk so it likely will be. [/quote]
