Of course it's not thought through. I'm in a crisis! I'm being bullied and abused, and I am trying to get rid of my husband and kick him out of the home in the easiest way possible. He has GOT to leave. He has mentioned moving to Florida many times, so now I want to take him up on it. My father consults with elderly in elderly homes. My husband's parents rent their apartment in this living facility. My dad says my husband can probably stay short term as a guest/visitor but not live there long term. We are not financially well off, either one of us. I have zero savings right now and my husband is financially not stable OR responsible. We're in a predicament, and I am in a crisis. __________________ "Twenty-five years and my life is still trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination" ~4 Non Blondes |

I need a lawyer's advice and consult and I need him out. Period. I am going to speak with a lawyer about the details. That's what I need right now.

I feel so alone. I just spoke with a lawyer who won't take on my case because he's volatile. She says she doesn't handle those kinds of cases, and referred me to another lawyer, who had a one-star review on Google.
I am alone in my apartment today researching the divorce process. I just spoke for almost 2 hours with one of my closest friends about how to go about this, if we were to do mediation. I am really scared and alone. __________________ "Twenty-five years and my life is still trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination" ~4 Non Blondes |

Or justia.com They have lists of lawyers per area and you can search their names later to see reviews . What does she mean he is volatile. He yells at his wife, he isn’t going to yell at a lawyer. What kind of divorces does this lawyer handle. Jeez. Amicable divorces don’t even need a lawyer. How annoying. But there are hundreds of lawyers |

The third lawyer I spoke with (just today) I really liked. I may hire him. He spent nearly one hour on the phone with me for free on his end, and explained everything thoroughly, he made a lot of sense, he was compassionate and took my unique circumstances all into consideration.
It apparently would cost (potentially) a lot less for me to hire an attorney who will write up the divorce agreement rather than go through mediation. I still need and want to consider mediation, but since my husband will probably explode, be unreasonable, and may even try to leave the state, my gut feeling is that I should hire my own lawyer. __________________ "Twenty-five years and my life is still trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination" ~4 Non Blondes |
