Help/advise needed I've got 30 mins free with a solicitor about Separation /divorce.
We've been married for 16yrs, the house is in his name & he has always had his own bank account which his wages were paid into. I've never known any of the financial side of things. He gave me housekeeping weekly & paid all the bills.
I've suspected him of having an affairs a few times but he always denied it. Recently I found pictures of his Ex-wife in a drawer in his bedroom & last week I found a bracelet in his bedside cabinet.
When I confront him about anything he makes me out to be the one in the the wrong then he gets in a mood because I'm causing a row.
This time he's packed a lot of clothes & left. He also said he's not going to pay any bills anymore. Now our children have grown up (he has 2 & I have 3) & left there was only the two of us here. Well one now!
What I want to do is write down a list of questions to ask the solicitor!
With only having 30 mins I don't want to leave then think of something else I should of asked.

I would imagine the 30 mins with the solicitor will give time to take down necessary details and thats it (nowt is free really)
When you say you found pictures of his ex wife, do you mean recent ones? or a modern braclet?
I keep all my photos new partner or not, that does not transpire to an affair.
(not saying he did not have an affair, but your reasons above does not point to that unless they were recent).
Oh, are there 5 children or 3?0
