I have had a preliminary consultation with a divorce attorney. The retaining cost is $4,000, which is a bit steep currently. I decided to file the preliminary paperwork myself as a result. If, in fact, an atty is needed further into the process, I plan to certainly secure that service. My husband was diagnosed with dementia last October, and his needs far outweigh what I am reasonably able to provide.
During the consultation with the attorney, she mentioned that the state may mandate a representative advocate for my husband due to his diagnosis. Is this the case? Additionally, my children sold the home to us with $60,000 equity for my sake to be close to the grandchildren. Can this be considered? I have not filed yet.
