Background: separated 2 and a half years ago. House sold but equity has been held by solicitors. My parents put up most of the deposit for the house I am in now - I am hoping to pay them back some money from the divorce settlement.
Been through mediation twice. First time agreed a 60:40 split in my favour of all assets as children live with me but was never processed. Next lot of mediation ex had spent all savings in his name so was agreed 60:40 split of house sale money in my favour - in my favour because of children living with me but also pension 3x mine. This was over a year ago and it has still not been processed. Since then he took me to court to try to get 50:50 time with the children (he lost) and have had letters from his solicitors saying he wants 60:40 of the money in his favour with me getting a share of his pension or split the money 50:50 with no share of pension and he's wanting to take me to court over this.
I have had enough of fighting. I just want to get on with my life and my partner is moving in soon. I am willing to settle for 50:50 and be done with it but my solicitor says I should fight for some of his pension. There has been no maintenance paid for over two years and I want to go to CSA but have avoided doing so because I haven't wanted to aggrevate him while there is still unfinished business.
So AIBU to give up?
