So after my second meeting with the lawyer, I was told that due to our six year self made agreement it will look bad in the courts that i would be asking for more time all of a sudden. Status Quo has kicked in. In our self made agreements, the ex and i always made the visitation agreement and CS on our own.
Now the ex wants full CS payments, and no time increase in the visitation. (keeping me just under 40%) It seems like if i take it to court im in for a up hill battle. Almost to the point, where i should just take what i can get from my ex and save myself the 10 grand it will take to go through the courts.
Im really confused. What do you think? Should i try my hand in court and see what decision i could get in the courts. The draw back, is lots of ill will with my daughters mom, and lots of money spent.
or should i try to negotiate the best possible solution with my ex and keep working with a self made agreement? The draw back being, nothing is on paper and I am at the will of my ex's decisions.
It seems like a lose lose to me. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
