Hello Everyone I hope all is well.
My sister is getting divorced by her husband. This is the second time at this. My sister is a massive bum and he had a huge crush on her and well marriage happened years later. They have only been together for 7 years before he realized he kind of screwed up. He got a lawyer and then she made his life a living hell. Stalling, scaring, etc. So he backed off.
The following year something happened with money and he started all over again and moved out to live with his brother. He chose to try and negotiate with her and she is asking for lack of a better word "everything" and for him to be financially screwed for life. I think he is now 15K in the hole as a result.
My sister does not want to get divorced. She just wants to enjoy life, have no kids and full financial security no matter what. She is stalling again. refusing to maintain the house and trying to rack up the expenses. Our mother me, she told her "I want to break him". I believe it.
Since she never had a job she got legal aid and legal aid got her a lawyer. However, she got pissed because since they have a house, in both there names, that will needs to be sold and she will need to pay them back.
If this divorce gets done, she will no longer live at this house and have to get a job for the first time in her life. She is 28 BTW. Hence, if she "breaks him" and gets him to back off again, she could continue to life her life.
Her plan are working and for what I heard he has no money left and they have a meeting with the judge, the first time, in September.
I having issues wrapping my head around this. If my sister manages to break her husband again and he can not longer pay for his lawyer and she does not want to continue for obvious reasons; and the house does not get sold. From legal aids point of view what happens? Do they just eat these costs? Like my sister is a massive "talker" this lawyer probably been talking with her almost daily knowing her. I am not joking. She has not sufferer any financial consequences for her lawyer so far.
Does anyone here have any insight of what will happen if my Brother in-law "breaks"? I feel bad for the man and this whole situation feels just wrong.
