Yes, please see an attorney. When you're dealing with legal matters, it's smart to hire someone who knows the law. And when you're dealing with a double-dealing spouse who has already demonstrated just how selfish and self-centered and entitled he is, it's the better part of wisdom not to trust he will be fair. At the very least, have a lawyer look over your settlement to ensure you're getting a fair deal before you file it with the court.
100% the plan. I have a list already and will be starting a local divorce support group in the next few weeks where I can get some referrals.
