I am in the process of splitting up with H.
He has agreed we should split, but wants to delay for a while, for a number of reasons (main one, we are currently mid-major renovation of our house, so it is unsellable for at least 6 months or so, probably longer). I don't want to wait that long - we don't get on well, the children are being affected, but it is difficult to see a way out unless he agrees to move out (don't think he will agree).
I saw CAB yesterday, to go over basic stuff, and they have given me a list of solicitors. How do I choose one?
We have a complicated situation. We have 3 dc, all disabled. Eldest is severely disabled, and will never live independently. While I have no interest whatsoever in taking H to the cleaners, it is undeniable that after we split he will be in a position to carry on as before, in high earning job, while I will have no chance of working due to childcare/carer needs. The dc, given their ages and needs, will be at 3 different schools, so even the school run is not straightforward, and will make working virtually impossible. I do,mtherefore, need to ensure that the dc's futures are well taken care of.
So, I have a husband who will probably not agree to moving out, a house that is more of a liability than an asset currently, and a dodgy financial future (everything in H's name, he has been quite controlling over money throughout our relationship). I am keen to find an efficient solicitor, to say the least.
