Hey everyone. I will keep this small and sweet as I think it will be a long enough thread without me rambling on.

My parents have split up, to keep this low detail my mother left and is now seeing a new partner, my father and the family suspect my mother of adultery which she has admitted to now my father has pushed for a divorce with his solicitors.

Today, he received in the mail a letter with the following that he would like someone possibly to explain what my mother is trying to do, or what the law states he must do :

Quote:
I am enclosing a copy of the letter I have recieved from Mrs "hiddenforprivacy"'s solicitors. I think they are correct in that we now need to deal with financial disclosure and I would suggest that you obtain the following.

1: contact three estate agents with a view to valuing the former matrimonial home. If you let them know this is for divorce purposes then there is likely to be a fee in the excess of £150. If you do this in a way of considering whether to sell the property or not, then the valuations will be free. We would ask however that you obtain written valuations.

2: You will need to obtain a letter/statement from your mortgage company as to the amount outstanding on the mortgage and also the amount outstanding on the loan.

3: I am aware that there are two cars. Please provide a value o the cars or if there is no value because of loans, a statement in relation to the loans.

4:You should then supply copies of any bank accounts or building society accounts, or copies of any statements in relation to any other assets you may have.

5: I know you told me that Mrs "hiddenforprivacy" has a number of debts. If there are any debts in joint names or in your sole name please provide details of those and whether the indebtedness is in relation to the personal matters or joint matters.

6: I will also need a copy of your wage slip or P60 and details of any pension you may have.


If you have any difficulties about this matter please do not hesitate to contact me but i would be obliged if you would prepare this documentation ASAP.

Yours sincerely

Jill (my fathers solicitor)

enclosed letter from my mothers solicitors:

DEAR SIRS

We write with regard to financial matters. We recently made a referral to mediation but Mr "myfather" did not respond to the mediator. As it would appear that your client is not willing to attend the mediation, the next logical step would be for there to be an exchange of financial documentation. We would therefore be obliged if you would arrange to provide financial disclosure on behalf of your client.

We look forward to hearing from your

Yours faithfully

Prickhead Solicitor of Mrs cheatinggolddiggerbitch

Not on the best terms with your mom eh?

I think all this letter is for is so that your dad gets all his financial documentation together. They will each get 1/2 of the combined assets, I don't think the adultery matters, and since you are over 18 then there won't be any child support. If you mom doesn't have any income your dad might have to pay spousal support.

Basically they are asking details for valuing what your father/parents own, i guess to split it in two between them in case of divorce, depending of the wedding system (I dont really know in english but e.g. separate property, community property, etc).

That's a given. Sad Wouldn't your father's solicitor be the best person to answer this question and give advice about a course of action?

Your mother's lawyers will make an assessment of your father's net worth and then argue how your mother contributed to that. If she had a job then she can show her bank statements and stuff. Even if she was a housewife they will prove how her staying at home helped and blah blah blah. In short, how she deserves to get half? (don't know exact percentage).

What your father's lawyers will probably advise him is to get tangible evidence of the adultery. If she has a new boyfriend then evidence of their social status with regard to living together or otherwise. Reading your post I get the impression you are not too fond of your mother. That could also figure in the civil suit. What kind of mother was she, what kind of a husband was your father, etc etc. It will get messy. Sad

hmm. Well, my father was a great husband, from what I could see. He treat her well, they had good times together, he bought her anything she would want, including cars. He earns significantly more than she did, and right up until the last year she was a good mother in all sense of the word. But I don't think m views on her will matter. Im just angry for her getting into this mess, what makes things worse is that its right over xmas, a time which usually my family get together for parties and good times.. wont be happening this year.

Adultery does matter in divorce cases. Plus if you're in full time education you can receive maintence until you're 21.
