Hello,
I am looking for some advice, My boyfirend has been seperated for alsmot 3 years now and I would like to know If I am right in thinking that his Lawyer isn't doing anything for him. Currently he is paying $2500 monthly for spousal support. She is looking for $4000 now that his daugter (who lived with us) has recently turned 18. A little background first to give you an idea of the situation.
My bf and his ex have been together 20 years, she never worked, but could have. She was abusive towards him mentally and physically, also controlled everything. I am not saying this because of him telling me, this is family telling me and very close clients and co workers telling me this.
So far he has to pay her $2500 +health benefits+life insurance and half of his pension (acording to his lawyer for the rest of his life)
When he left the home, she sold everything in the home..pool table..lawn mower..BBQ..pation set...leather livingroom couch...4x$5000 painting and a lot more. His Lawyer advised him that she would have to pay that back...nothing has been done yet and his Lawyer has not mentioned any of this to her new Layer...keep in mind her new Lawyer is her 5th in 2 years..
Their home was sold in August 2010 and he has not yet seen anythign from the profits of the sale. However she was given $10,000 so far from her share.
She works for her dfaughter babysitting and makes $1000 per month and his Lawyer says that unless her income exceeds $21,000 she does not have to claim it.
There is so much more but I am totally baffled with all this and thinks that he is getting screwed royally. I've been through a divorce myself and it was never like this.
Can someone shed some light..cause he and I are thinking that she is working for His ex more and are these Ontario Laws for real?
thanks
