Q: I guess the rest did not go through regarding abuse

I had him arrested in March for trying to punch my face blocked with my hand. I got a lawyer it seemed like she was working for him instead of me then I'd had to get another lawyer this is a domestic violence victim with no money line on my disabled Vietnam vet father they promised the world we're going to take them for 10% we can prove everything she signed a consent for me that I would never sign or would a crazy person cuz he was supposed to pay for the mortgage and utilities for March until March the judge said status quote his lawyer is a slimeball and gives lawyers a bad name. I go into mediation and there I'm told that they intra gated both the criminal act and the divorce which is illegal and extortion prior to going in there my lawyer finally tells me after I've been asking her how come it keeps getting continuances she never answers now she says well that's how we do it here no you don't it's called extortion when you say he'll give me so much alimony if I drop the case.
