Should I hire a lawyer against my husband’s will?

We’re getting a divorce, my stbx doesn’t want a lawyer involved. He drafted the Dissolution of Marriage and wanted me to sign it right away. I did not sign it because it is not fair and because I know I’m not getting what I am entitled to. I will have physical custody of the children.
1) We have two minor kids, and one 19 yo full time student. He is only willing to pay 20% of his take home pay for child support and nothing more. Not willing to split any other expenses, such as school tuition, extra curriculum activities, medical expenses not covered by insurance, etc.
2) He want exactly 1/2 of the profit of the sale of our house. The downpayment we put in this house was from the sale of my own house which I purchased before we got married.
3) He also strongly disagree that I am entitled to some percentage of his retirement investment.
4) He has some savings bond that he is hiding from me.
5) He withdrew $700 from our joint checking account and wouldn’t tell me what he did with it.

Before my dad past he was renting land for 175.00 a month and the guy built a 445 sq foot house on it well?

Daddy was 92 at the time and didn’t say anything to man then daddy put the land into my name and sister too. He told the next door friend that he was going to take it on squatters rights he has been there for I think 8 years. I raise the rent 350.00 a month and I want to sale. Now is there a Lawyer out there that can tell me who’s house is this mine or his. The land is only worth 7,000 but it’ worth 50.000 with the 445 sq footage. If he stays anther 10 years he will be paying 42.000 if i was him I would just pay me out. And he can’t take on squatters because he don’t pay the taxes.

What do you do when your lawyer screws up, and won’t answer for it?

We bought a house, and used the funds from the sale of our previous house to pay for it. however we had to bridge finance our home, and the lawyer short paid the bank. now they won’t answer calls or letters to explain what happened. what can we do?

How can I make my cheating husband leave our home?

I need serious legal help. My husband has been having an affair, I want him to leave our home he says no he won’t leave. I don’t work out side of our home so I don’t have the money to hire a lawyer. Can someone tell me how I can make him leave? Can I buy a divorce packet for a contested divorce? And if so, in it can I ask the court to make him leave our home till the sale of it in the divorce? I know he will be intitled to half of the money of the sale of the home after we pay the bills off. And since I am not employed can I ask that he still pay the mortgage? I called legal aid, and they said unless there is a protective order or I am on welfare, they wont help. And I called several lawyers and they want a $1,000 to 3,000 retainer. Also if anyone knows will lawyer’s ever take on a divorce case and collect the money from the sale of the home? I have been married for almost 11 years. This is his 4th affair, and I can’t forgive any more. I’m so broken up about this.
1.If I leave my home, he can get me for desertion. 2.I dont work because I fell, and broke two ribs, and now I cant find a job, we live in a very small town. 3. I was hoping a lawyer would read this thats why I put it on law thread. 4. I cant change the locks all he would have to do is break the window of his own house which is not a crime. 5. He is not abusive so there goes the protective order out the window. 6. To the idiot that said I was a typical woman that lives off a man. You dont know diddly squat, I work harder here at home maintaining a 7 room house and 2+acres of yard and plants then most do at there regular job, mister. And just because most of the world doesnt recognize or compinsate the caretakers and homemakers of the world. Doesnt mean we are worth nothing. I have worked all my life, except for the past few months, So shut up. I didnt have anything to do with the choice of weakness of my husband and his cheating ways and dark soul. 7. Leagal aid will not help. thanks
