you poor thing it is soo emotionally tolling isn’t it. Very hard to work full time and go through all this!! At least yours is only a few hundred. Can you put yours to bed for your mental state ? How did he get a free solicitor ?
So hard when working! Im off my game at work, I know, but my supervisor has been really understanding. Similar to you, I remain in the home and we verbally agreed to me paying him out half the equity. I had the papers drawn up, then I receive a request for financial disclosure and assets from a community justice centre (he is unemployed and eligble for free represntation) I send this to them, and the response from his is " her car is worth $5200, not $5400" and this went on and on and on, disputing asset amounts and costing me a damn fortune in solicitor fees!! The killer for me emotionally was when he included an future inheritance as an asset and counter offered over $100,000 !!!!! I counter offered again, including half my super on top of half the equity - and its been 2 and a half months since that offer. I just wanna live my life, ya know? Let alone, my bank approval was a year ago pre-covid and I wonder if they will even help me in 2020. You would think they would want it settled to get on with life, but no - its the $$$
