Thank you so much for your post. I hadn’t appreciated the importance of selecting the right solicitor who understood the nuances of the situations and the anticipated behaviour of my ex. Just in the few email exchanges with my ex has made the complexity of this a reality. I had done what the solicitor advised, but my ex’s response was nothing related to my email, each time he just laid out the “evidence” he has in preparation for the court case, demanding information from me. It has been hard to fight the need to defend myself in my reply, but I guess defending myself is what he wants. I have so far just stuck to repeating my original email. I have an appointment booked with a different solicitor, my first questions are going to be to establish their understanding of cases like this. I will follow your advice and post again asking for advice. Thank you again.
