Most people just put their bike on Trademe, you can get really attached to your bike but a divorce is a bit OTT

if one were to have a bitter/nasty divorce wouldn't they want a BAD lawyer; one who would use any means to look after their client and get them all they can get. Or is that a good lawyer.

My non legal advice .... getting help (even paid professional) is cheaper than a divorce in both long and short term.

your best option is to dye the carpet orangey brown,
Youll never get the bloodstains out. and put up some retro floral print wall paper, fill the air with cannabis smoke to mask the smell and make like you had a sudden hankering for the 60s

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.

I know people down here (Chur chur) but not there. You could have a look at the Family Lor Section of the NZLS's website: you can search and come up with a list. Make a few phone calls at that point.

I can reach out to the extended network but that will just be a name, not someone I know personally.

Bear in mind that a lawyer who has acted for both of you cannot act for one of you against the other (at least theoretically - often the other side will consent)

If you have any relationship with your previous lawyer you could ring him/her and ask for a recommendation too.

Have fun now.

S and have respective lawyers cast an eye over the agreement before it gets signed. Cheers.

You cannot make an agreement in these circumstances unless the provisions of s42 of the P(R) A 76 are complied with. Each party must receive independent legal advice prior to signing. there are a raft of requirements about that.

This is one of those situations where, unfortunately, your inertia will, very likely, cost you quite a bit of money. And this is about money if she is really pissed off then that will be all that matters.

Also, take some advice about your current situation. Because serial monogamy is a GREAT way to divest yourself of assets and capital. Do the math: 100% jointly becomes 50% only. second go round becomes 25% of original pie.

it gets worse from there.

That's a good reason not to get married, or at least get a prenup if you are.

Heres some free legal/life advice, son: Always hook up with someone far wealthier than you, and make them happy. Also married/not married hetero/homo (you'll be pleased to know) makes no difference.

I need to marry a rich old lady. I can just picture my own 1199 in the garage parked next to a CR500 motard.
