AIBU for worrying about what to tell solicitor?
Have been a victim of physical and emotional abuse in the past from husband and in process of separating. Clearly I want to tell my solicitor about the abuse but am worrying that if I do she will disclose this to social services. To be clear there is no social service involvement in my children’s lives, they don’t witness abuse, and have never been at risk. I’m a good mother and I can’t bear the thought of them being involved in my children’s lives so am panicking about what to tell solicitor.
For financial reasons it’s likely my husband and I will have to live together for some time whilst separated. Ironically since telling him I want things to end he hasn’t laid a finger on me and for majority of the time ignores me with the odd bit of gaslighting/emotional abuse.
anyone else been in position of disclosing previous abuse to divorce solicitor? What happened? Thank you
