Hi Jeff and anybody else out there.
I first looked at Jeff's website when I was in the height of my divorce proceedings.....It has since gone to TRIAL!!! That was back in April of this year and I got the Reasons for Judgement in July. The results were better than even my lawyer imagined....to me, it was simply justice done and something that I should have never have had to go through.
It was about an almost ex-husband who, at first, made decisions based on reasonable, rational thinking with the best interest of the kids in mind....and then, later trying to go back on his decisions because of sheer greediness and wanting to destroy me.....without any regard for what it would do to his kids.
He was a man who never willingly paid child support and thought that HE was the victim in this mess.
Thankfully, custody was never an issue. He handed me sole custody without so much as a discussion. That's because he never wanted the responsibility. That's okay. I'm absolutely thrilled. We separated five years ago when my sons were 13 and 10 and now they're just a joy to have with me. One is in University and the other is a straight A student in Secondary School, both of them extremely well adjusted and doing well emotionally and socially. They hardly see their father, my youngest one sees him approximately one day a week, if that...and not for the whole day either. It's less for my older son. Actually, it's quite shocking that my younger son stayed overnight with him this weekend for one night because that hasn't happened in months.
Anyway, the long and the short of it is, the lawyer has made his submission for costs and I'm still waiting for results. The not soon enough ex has run from his lawyer's bill, and is filing for bankruptcy. Too bad for him that he can't escape the $21,000 in child support arrears that he owes. Too bad that I still owe my lawyer $19,000 that I have to dip into my inheritance for. I make a small income. Too bad that it ever had to happen. Thank G-d for my two sons that are the only two reasons to make all of that worth it.
Good luck to everybody in this forum and my hope is that everybody gets the justice that they deserve, good or bad.
Regards, Rhonda
