Q: I sign it thinking it was based off the divorce agreement my ex had it drafted up different to benefit her im
A:
It sounds like you may have signed a document under the belief that it reflected your divorce agreement, but later discovered that it was altered to benefit your ex. This can be a serious issue, and it's important to address it promptly. You might want to start by reviewing the signed document in detail to understand the differences from what you originally agreed upon.
Consider gathering any evidence that shows what the original agreement was supposed to be. This could include emails, text messages, or any draft versions of the agreement. Having this information will be crucial if you decide to challenge the document.
It might be beneficial to consult with a legal professional who can provide guidance on how to proceed. They can help you understand your options and the best course of action to ensure your rights and interests are protected. If there was any deceit or misrepresentation involved, there may be grounds to contest the document.
