samaraIt’s crazy how much these attorneys charge for the simplest things. I went down to file for a divorce which only took me to print out 2 documents online for free and complete them with my info. I then drove down to the Clerk of Courts and filed them, which took me less than 5 minutes to file. I then had to go back down to file again due to Brian’s ignorance which most people don’t have to do, but this is a special case because unfortunately I married someone that is incompetent. Now all I have to do now is bring in the required forms to court, present my case to the judge and BOOM, my divorce should be granted as long as I’ve done everything I needed to do and presented the correct forms to the judge. It doesn’t take rocket science to do this, but these attorneys charge over $1000 to just do that!
I got quoted $250 for an attorney to just draw up some simple paperwork and appear in court for me. If I had not filed for divorce myself it would have been over $400. I am representing myself, but if I find that Brian calls himself trying to make things more difficult, by contesting the divorce, getting an attorney, etc. I will hire them to help me get my divorce. The attorney also said that Brian can be ordered to pay half of the lease since he is legally obligated to pay it. I still can’t believe he actually thought I was going to just pay all the bills myself. It’s bad enough I am stuck with the burden of making sure my unborn child has furniture, carseat, clothes, etc. We all know he isn’t going to help do a damn thing.
I am also considering having my number changed. For the last week I’ve been getting Private (Blocked) calls to my house phone. Yesterday the person called twice. The second time they called I had a friend of mine answer to see if they’d actually say something and he told me that the person on the other end was whispering in the phone. WTH?!! I don’t have time for this schizo-psychopath shit! I already know who it is because I haven’t been getting the Private (Blocked) calls until now. I’d rather be left alone. I was abandoned with nothing, and I’ve been at peace ever since. My skin is no longer pale and my hair has ceased it’s intense shedding. My skin has also calmed down and I’ve been breaking out less. I do not need, nor will I tolerate the harassment and/or phone stalking.
