Legal Question in Family Law in Oregon

Re: divorce settlement redo

If your divorce is not yet "final" (meaning a judge has not yet signed the General Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage) you may be able to rescind the settlement agreement. But you need to act quickly, and you would most likely need the help of a lawyer (particularly if your spouse has a lawyer). Of course, you should not have accepted and relied upon what you heard your husband say that he heard a real estate agent regarding the value of the house. That's hearsay on hearsay, and it is distrustworthy (which is why it is not admissible in a court proceeding). Your should have have the house formally appraised by a professional real estate appraiser (NOT a real estate agent who is interested in obtaining the listing for sale and will give the owner/seller a high value in order to entice the owner/seller to sign the listing agreement).
