Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia
Amended Separation Agreements
can one decide to change there mind about certain issues in a singed separation agreement before they get a divorc e ?
Here is my situation like the above question: I'm in Georgia. I told my attorney reading through the separation agreement that my spouse attorney put together that I was not in agreement. She had changed several things that I requested and added things to his benefit. A key area is joint custody of the children. His attorney quickly had on on the record with the court reporter saying we would do joint custody with joint support. Then went off the record to discuss the division of expenses. My husband would not agree to pay half on any expense. I felt that I gave agreement in good faith that we would divide the expenses equally. I pointed out to my attorney per section seven of the agreement after weighing that outcome of the settlement I was not in agreement.
Futher we went to court it was suppose to be the day we went before the judge. We mediated made several changes to the settlement. My attorney hands me the back two pages and it has been notarized already to sign, it wasn't attached to a final version of the agreement. I never saw the notary. We did not see the judge and will return in December

Re: Amended Separation Agreements
The key phrase is "I told my attorney..." Discuss your questions with him/her.
