Divorce work disput

I thought the first time that I lost, it was my fault. I had a work disput which wasnt a big deal concerning a customer that owed me money. I took that one in stride. Then a few months later my divorce came up, I called her weeks leading to the hearing and everything was fine, I was told everything w...as stardard procedure, but when we got to court, I was in the waiting room and I over heard her negotiating with my ex's attoney, saying "I'll pitch this deal to him, I think he'll go for it, I dont care I just want this to be over". I was shocked I didnt know what to do. She stated that it was the only option that I had was to pay my ex for everything, I mean things that we didnt even talk about.. This was not our game plan, then basically told me that she would walk out and not represent me. So in the end I lost about 18k I should have just gave all the accounts over to my ex wife and walked away and not sought out an attorney. I thought that I was fighting for something but all I did was lose more money and create more headaches for myself. I believe if I would of had a different lawyer it would have ended differently, my buddy reffered her bc she was so on top of things for his case in the beginning, but I guess I could count myself lucky because he got it worse than me(finding out just recently). We both make good money and his exwife is getting it all.. Good luck everyone

April Hermine Marlett is a fantastic lawyer!

I have fought for custody for my son for 7 years. I had a laundry list of valid concerns. I had been to court representing myself several times and I finally sought help. I found another Xenia Lawyer who did a fine job but Ms. Marlett truly brought this case home. She is absolutely fabulous and I wou...ld and do recommend her highly. She is extremely capable and her staff is on the ball too.
