She moved out 2 years ago leaving me and the kids in the family home (I kept paying the mortgage) and has not responded well to my new partner moving in. I need 1st up advise from a good lawyer just to get a handle on my rights. We are both hoping to keep it out the courts and have respective lawyers cast an eye over the agreement before it gets signed. Cheers.

you dont actually need a lawyer for this. And being that theyre the blood sucking scourge of the earth, best avoided.

IF she can be reasoned with, get shit on paper and signed, maybe notaried, fast. and then hammer out shit later.

One assumes the title to the house is joint?
Shits gay.
A valuable lesson. Dont bring women home. And always fuck them in the ass.

O RLY? How does he get her off the title without a signed A & I form? What is the base document for the A & I form? Why the FUCK would she sign ANYTHING and in particular something drafted by some numpty that is NOT a binding settlement under the Property (Relationships) Act 1976.

I do this shit for a living son, pull your head in. That is bad advice.

Also you've watched too many TV shows. Having something notarised is useful ONLY where it is travelling overseas. You do realise that it is an ecumenical office?

cos they know what the fuck they're talking about and you just got schooled?

[Akzle]

no. Because they deal with legislation crap. And talk crap. And bill you 2 point baggies an hour for the priviledge.
If shit can be resolved without involving the jewdiciary, everyone is better off. Except lawyerjews. Poor, poor lawyerjews.

This isn't the States or the UK where the one with the best lawyer wins. Having just gone through the same thing, the NZ situation is a 50/50 split of assets (including any pensions). It only gets clouded when kids are brought into the picture. A private parental agreement ( via solicitors) is the best way to go. What you don't want is the govt agencies being involved. They are the ones that take you to the cleaners.
