XH is represented for the financial proceedings, I am not.
XH missed all the deadlines for exchange of Form E and consequently I couldn’t produce a questionnaire. XH and solicitor turned up to the first hearing with a sparsely completed form E and a questionnaire. After the hearing, we agreed exchange dates for questionnaires.
However, his solicitor emailed me to say he was doing a new questionnaire and was waiting for approval from XH before letting me know exchange date. The next I heard from him, he said it was completed and could I exchange now. I explained that I thought we would be setting a new date and offered a week but he is now saying it is unacceptable to miss the court deadline by a week. I was trying to be flexible for him but he’s acting like I’m in the wrong.
At court, I found him intimidating - he was trying to force me to agree a lower valuation on the house.
How do I deal with him please? I don’t want to argue with him but I find his attitude unacceptable.
