Divorce Support Forums: Using a power of atty to file for divorce....

you need to bring these points up with your attorney to have him incorporate in the decree. i'm not sure how your state works with what particular filings and or hearings need to be filed or held so talk to an attorney about that. talk with your county child support office first and ask them all the same questions. they will be able to tell you the law but not offer any legal advice. that way you are educated about it a little more and wont need to waste your money asking your attorney since they seem to charge by the minute. i am telling you all this not only from a professional standpoint in seeing it but my husband did not have a decree that was clear enough for his x and it was a nightmare from the start. she tries to find any and all loopholes to avoid or use to her advantage. i.e.: they have both been going 50/50 on activity fees, etc for the kids. now all of a sudden she is refusing to pay for half citing that there isnt specific enough language in the decree to support it. and she is correct. there isnt clear enough language to "make" her pay her half. it just puts the kids in the middle is all and sucks for them. if we want to change it to include the language we have to hire an attorney and go to court, ect blah blah blah $2000.00 later. Just set everything now so there are no arguments and less hassle with the x.
