Re: who know best divorce me or my lawyer
It sounds like you have valid facts to show adultery and or intolerable cruelty. I cannot assess your chances of success merely by looking at the paragraph of information you submitted. I would need to see all of the information. As far as hiring counsel, if you want the job done correctly, then you hire counsel. If you attempt to represent yourself, you risk making many costly mistakes. After all, you are consulting this site for a reason. In the end however, you have the right to represent yourself if you so choose. If you need further help, you can email me at [email protected].
