Martha Meares

My divorce took 9 years to get concluded with no children and really no assets, not even a home. It was drug out and I even did a lot of my own copying to save fees and still ended up with a large bill. I asked about a uncontested divorce on grounds of abandonment since he went to federal prison an...d I had learned this was possible and claimed they knew nothing about it and would have to research it. They never checked on it and let it drag out years longer until the judge and his attorney was finally over it and granted it anyway. This was a marriage with severe mental and physical abuse involved that was even documented. It was unsafe for me to have to continue fighting him and she knew it. I needed a speedy out and safety and it was not found there.
