It isn't gonna be a fun time.

I guess it's my turn to carry the baton. I'm in for $12K so far, but I expect it to be about $15K by the time it's over. Same story tho, this whole thing could have been resolved for less than $500.
The only upside at this point is the female friends who are consoling me through the difficult times I'm facing.
In regards to your brother, hiring an atty is priority one. Getting total control of the funds is the next. Considering the marriage was only a little over a year in length, he might have a good shot at an uncontested divorce. Best of luck to him.
