Hello guys,
While I have a lawyer and he gives me the legal advice, I would like to get some reassurance by asking you guys just to make sure everything makes sense.
I sponsored my STBX's immigration to Canada. A month after she arrived here and received her PR, she made horrible rape allegations against me. Long story short, she used me for immigration. While she was still around, we were able to serve her with divorce notice. She did not file her answer within 30 days but few days after she hired a lawyer. She claimed improper service and asked to be served again which we did. Her lawyer asked for more time which we gave. Then eventually she fired her lawyer. After wasting few months and just before we were ready to go to court, she sent repeated emails to my lawyer saying that she wants to settle out of court. She also moved to another city but did not give us her new address. My lawyer drafted Minutes of Settlement and emailed to her. Would it be ok and binding if she and her witness sign it and email/mail to us? How would we know that it was infact her who signed it? Can she challenge it later saying her email was hacked etc? What if the witness is fake? I guess I'm trying to understand if it's ok for the other party to communicate and get everything done via email?
