A: Sorry , but your situation is so complicated that a proper answer would exceed what can be given in this question-answer format. It sounds like you might be better off going to court than trying to mediate or settle with your husband. I strongly suggest you consult an experienced divorce lawyer, talk to more than one. Many lawyers now offer a free consultation.
