My wife just left, and wants to get full custody of my 7 year old. I won't fight for full custody because I am told the court costs would costs between 10,000-20,000+ and nethier of us could afford that. I make about 45K a year, and she doesn't have a job and is living at her parents while seeing another guy at least once per day, that lives 30 minutes from her parents. She wants to relocate to 2-3 hours away, and while it F-in blows and drives me insane, the only thing I could do is get a lawyer, go into massive debt, and place my daughter in a horrible custody battle.
I talked to a lawyer about my optins and it sucks. To even get the divorce filed with custody paperwork, and child support set up, it would cost 3500$.
Do I need to have a lawyer, or is this something I can do myself>? Suggestions, comments, helpful websites? Also, we are 25,, married for 6 years, no property, we each own our own car, and I have to travel 1/3 months over night, and only able to come back on weekends. She's a selfish a--hole who doesn't know how to balance the checkbook. Sorry but its true.I have done all preparation to get the divorce moving along including all her packing, transferring bank accounts, and paying all the bills.
