divorce settlement advice

I'm a divorcing single mum. i won't bore you all with the background of my marriage but let's say it was controlling to say the least, with a lot of financial control.

i have my fdr coming up and with a lot of financial help from my parents am able to get good counsel. my husband has lied a lot in his disclosure but i simply do not have the funds to unpick all the lies. the way it stands at the moment is 300k equity in the fmh, with a mortgage of 600k remaining. he also owns 2 properties totalling another 300k equity. he earns 14k per month net.

im favouring a mesha order in which he pays the mortgage and we spilt 50\50 in 17 years. ill be 55. this will be based on him paying the mortgage of 2 k per month. I'd also like 2k per month child benefit and 1k spousal. is this reasonable?

how long do i get spousal maintenance for? i work 2 days a week at the moment and earn 1k per month. my baby a 1. any advice would be welcome. thank you
