It's cheaper I think to have his lawyer draft the divorce agreement, and then I have a lawyer read it over and negotiate any points. I've been quoted a flat rate of $500 from three lawyers to do it this way. Otherwise, if I hire a lawyer to draft the agreement on my end, I have to pay a hefty retainer.

Plus, I proposed to him that we file together.
