Do we each need a lawyer or one person to draft the language?
NO!!!!! No no no no no no no!
Nope nope Nyet nada!
The second she gets a lawyer they are gonna talk her into some legal battle and it will be horrible.
Get ONE lawyer, who you choose, just to draft the paperwork and do that. Be conciliatory. Don’t start fights or be a dick even if she is a bitch. And do it quick before she changes her mind

Only read through the first page and didn't see this yet, so I'll say it.
Need pics of soon-to-be ex-wife to make an informed decision about how screwed you are about to be.

Yeah, I did the same thing back in 85, no lawyers, agreed to split assets, give her $400 a month in child support, yada, yada, yada.
Three weeks into the actual split I'm served papers since her friends (all females) convinced her she NEEDED a lawyer.
Well, that forced me into hiring one too just to be on the safe side. Most things stayed the same except for child support as it was bumped to $500 a month plus paying for his private education which was another $100 a month at the time.
I can almost guarantee there will be lawyers involved before all is said and done.

With no kids, just split assets. Did debt occur before marriage or during? If you paid off her debt that was brought into the marriage, you could be entitled to what was paid off. Google paid in debt.

California, my car is under my name and paid off this year. Hers is on her name with me as co-signer. My student debt is mine and hers we were married when she got her loan from fasfa
My divorce was finalized in June in Cali. A paralegal can get this done for cheap. List out all the assets and debt and find an agreement on that. Since the debt was during the marriage, all payments on that are equal, except for debt you brought into the marriage.
You can argue for 50% of the car value, or just give up on that equity so you are no longer responsible for the payments.
A paralegal can write up the divorce papers and a judge will review everything to make sure it’s equitable.

You are absolutely screwed unless your ex is in the 5% of women that really want to move on with their lives instead of spending most of their remaining years with the sole goal of making you miserable every chance they get. Good luck.

I'm going through this as well, but we have kids and house and more stuff.
Sounds like yours won't be that complex. I strongly consider hiring an attorney to just put everything in legal terms and guide you through the process. In LA, there are plenty of attorneys that will charge you a flat fee just for document prep and basic process review. Y'all can split the cost of that.

This, just did this in Louisiana last year. You don't have to pay an arm and a leg to lawyers if you can work it all out on your own. Things get a little more complicated if you have kids or she wants alimony or anything. However, if you don't have that many assets or kids, it's not rocket science. Divorce can be as painful and costly as either of you want it to be. If you can remain civil until the divorce it final, work it out on your own and get the judge to sign off on it. Divorce lawyers are a racket. You pay them a ton to fill in the blanks on divorce forms that already exist and are available for you on the internet for pretty cheap.

To be honest I am hoping she changes her mind because I still love her but not sure if there is a first person advantage when it comes to making moves in this
That's all well and good but you better get something in writing ASAP!!!
Bitches be crazy and mean!!
You can use the same attorney but get it all in writing!!!

I always wondered about student loan debt.
Say your spouse acquired college debt before y’all got married, graduated from whatever school and then y’all got married.
Is that debt community property? Other spouse responsible for half?
Anyone know?

I gave her half of our liquid assets (cash) and verbal agreement we settle our own debts.
You came to the right place.

I'd consult with a lawyer for peace of mind. I wouldn't trust any woman in this situation.
Maybe she'll read your FB page, see you dating someone else and decide to put the screws to you. That's how quickly she can turn vengeful.

You need a lawyer. Trust me. I had a good one and he saved me so much money I can't even pay him back in booze.

If you have no representation you are seriously jeopardizing your future. Lawyer up now.

Didn't read all the thread but this is the only correct answer. I shouldn't need to go into the reasons why.
