T.;
I sure hope that you can prove that everything was done with
YOUR money! That seems to be the key.
The sad part is that there isn't anything that the attorneys
can use to compensate themselves on a condtingentcy, so yes
you'll have to pay!
The key to this whole thing is proof that all this was your
money, if you can't prove that, then it is really up hill
battle. If you have checks to back all this up, then go to
a copier store and make copies of all of them.
Then find a "Mean" woman attorney, it will be expensive,
probably $15,000 to $20,000, but, I'm sure the home and the
business is worth more than that.
One other thing, you do not want this in front of a judge
or an arbitrator, you want a jury! Then on the jury you
want there to be more women than men! Men in a jury will
side with him even though he is the theif, women will side
with you 95% of the time!
I sincerely wish you good luck, because you have been totally
taken by a very unscrupluous Man!
What I'm afraid of is that when he locked you out of the house he destroyed all records, so you may have to go to your bank and get a set of records from them!
When you have a final judgement, please post it here!
