Loving Mom 215

Chapter 215

In this day and age, divorce had become a nearly impossible task.

Her lawyer had already told her more than once: if it could be helped, a divorce by mutual agreement was the fastest and

cleanest way out.

If she chose to go through legal proceedings, just the court review alone would take about six months. And if she wanted to divide property, given the complexities of the Biggs family’s assets, it might stretch to nine months or more.

Before even getting to court, they’d first have to go through mediation-at least another month. Only if mediation failed would the court officially file the case.

The lawyer politely said to her, “Even if both of you eventually agree to the divorce, because there’s a child involved and Mr. Biggs hasn’t committed any serious offense, the court is very likely to deny the request.” (1

“I know that sounds ridiculous,” he added. “But this is the reality. I’ve handled divorce cases for years-this kind of situation is more common than you’d think. If you want the quickest way out, negotiating is still the best route.”

Sharon asked, “The evidence I’ve gathered-could it prove he’s at fault in the marriage?”

The lawyer shook his head. “Not really. Nothing you have clearly proves infidelity. And even if there was cheating… legally speaking, it wouldn’t necessarily affect how the assets are divided.

“Unless you catch them in bed or can prove they’re living together and publicly calling each other husband and wife-then you might have a case for bigamy. Then you might be able to negotiate for a bit more. But getting him to walk away with nothing? That’s simply not going to happen.”
