Willow ,'Same Time, Same Place'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I think we'll be pretty much in agreement over everything; we just can't handle all the paperwork ourselves.No, you really can't. Mine was far less complicated and there was just no way.
If you are not fighting things, the mediation costs won't be scary high. And you want the divorce, so you pay and move on. It's cheaper, by far, than lawyers or making a mistake on your own.
Thanks. I contacted a local mediator who also has practiced in CT. We'll see where that leads.
t still doing the angry bitch dance
but even with lawyers, I've not seen it cost that much.
My aunt does mediation and family law. The bills can be outrageous. People would rather give the money to an attorney than work something out with their ex-spouse. It gets really ugly and can last trhough years of court battles and billings. Lawyers bill hourly and $250 is actually a low rate. You can get to $10K in 40 hours that way.
I hope the mediator you contacted can help you, K.
Picturing said dance in the outfit Aimee linked yesterday.
Maybe someone was going to use it for a leg wound, and dropped it, and had to get a new one out before they drove to the hospital and therefore did not have time to pick up the dropped one, lest they bleed everywhere, and then they got to the hospital and had stitches, and the surgeon said "Good thing you thought of that, it was sterile enough to prevent outside contamination."
But then I may just be projecting my own experiences on the situatiuon.
Why they always gotta break out the ASS CAPS?
Because it's on the list of escalating internet flaming, a couple of points before invoking the Nazi clause.
Her initial post was all in ASSCAPS, too.
Pretty much what Cass said, but even with lawyers, I've not seen it cost that much. In the thousands, maybe, but tens of thousands, uhm, no.
My sister's divorce was over $10K (lawyers, not mediators), but they had some nasty custody issues that needed to be worked out.
Kristin, it will suck, but it will work out.

Really, really something I would not have thought of.
