Divorce alimony settlement

You have stated that she is there asking for x amount, there is no harm in revealing what she is asking for since we do not know your name or her name at all. We also do not know what profession you are in or that she is in. I appreciate that she was trying to file a false case and you state that you had taken all necessary precautions, could you please reveal what precautions you had taken? I also understand that she is stating that the lump sum will help her start a new life. The question here is if she is working this would have an impact on her lump sum. Is she working or is she a housewife? You also have stated that she is well educated what are her qualifications? Your main question was is it ok if I reply via email? Not knowing some of the facts could jeopardize the negotiation process, i.e. you may need to agree on a higher amount than a smaller amount. The other question you raised was that 'no further communication should be made unless you agree to the amount offered'. In my opinion I feel this will allow the communication to close rather than to stay open and negotiate further. On the other hand you may think that by stating what you had suggested will allow her to accept what is being offered. Contrary to this she may go to court and be offered a higher amount. I hope some of these suggestions may help you even if you intend not to provide information that I had suggested, because I feel you are also highly educated and know what you are doing. Please do not hesitate to raise issues of concern in the future, we are all here to help out. KS Johal

Simple mistake in the first sentence. please delete the word 'there'.

It all depends on what you are earning and what she is demanding.

 

Remember its a game of TIME. If you can afford just negotiate and pay her off. Money lost can be earned back, but if time is lost you will lose peace,health,freedom and the list goes on.

 

Be humble and do not use conditions while you are negotiating as u need to keep the channel open. While putting your views across let the court know (if the time comes) how mature and logical u were in negotiating for a dignified exit.

 

All the Best !!
