Hi all,
I'm going through a very acrimonious divorce to the point she has made me broke. I've had to continuously defend lies to police and courts, social services etc.
Anyways would there be any lawyers or anyone available on this thread that could perhaps advice me privately. Given its a public forum im hesitant to put too much in..
I feel like much of the process she has simply been allowed to lie even in finances. She has not disclosed her hidden accounts and joint finances with her partner. The courts would readily accept her version of lies but I find myself having to provide all sorts of evidence to present my case and with finances coming up and no money to represent self anymore I'm really worried what my strategy should be to attain an outcome that is fair given that it has not been so far.
There are guides about dealing with finances on the advicenow.org.uk website which may be helpful. There is also a guide on self representation. Is there any chance of trying mediation? That would be cheaper than court
