Hi, Been married for 14 yrs with him for total of 20 yrs. I have till next wk to agree on financial split H wants 60/40 or we got to final hearing at the end of Nov and the unknown as it will be down to a judge to make the decisions! He is 41 and lives with his 22 yr old girlfriend in a 3 bed rented house. He is self employed (Says he got no money!) I have 3 kids huge mortgage as we had borrowed lots to extend. Left with house unfinished. I think 60/40 is to much as I am mid 40's and though I work part time around the kids - lost my career years ago! By time kids will leave I will be late 50's and will never have a £30k job where I live! Youngest child is 8! His solicitor is trying to stop my legal aid so then I will not be able to afford to take it to final hearing and have to agree to his conditions or pay £££ for the final hearing! Have no idea what to do! Cave in and accept or stick to my guns! Fighting for me and the kids as he pays very little for his kids! Any advice would be gratefully received. I only want what is fair for the children and me. Thanks for reading
