I lost all respect (sorry, Donald) for attorneys when I saw my attorney and my ex's attorney sitting at a cafeteria table and laughing it up over cups of coffee during a recess of my divorce proceedings. They weren't protecting anyone's interests -- they were simply parroting what was already laid out in Virginia code (i.e., property settlement) and were probably comparing billable hours. They had no more concern about assisting either of us than you will have about getting up tomorrow morning and taking a leak. It was pure assembly line, with everyone having his hands in the back pockets of those they were supposed to be representing. The only reason they exist is because they are allowed to appear before the Court, where you and I aren't (unless we are in criminal court and decide to represent ourselves). The only advice my ex's attorney gave her was to try to provoke me into assaulting her (she tried but I as able to side-step everything -- which is maybe why I do what I do for a living now, natural instincts when working with out-of-control individuals). The only advice my attorney gave me was to throw my wife and children out onto the street, force sale the house and split the profits. (I refused, saying that she could just have the house for the sake of the two kids -- they had gone through enough trauma already without suddenly being homeless.)
