Daniel Gigiano Reviews How To Lose Your Ohio Divorce Case

There are so many articles on how to win your divorce case or how an attorney can help you win.  I have written many of those articles, too.  This article takes a different approach by discussing how to lose your Ohio divorce case.  While the topic is meant to be somewhat humorous, these are some very real ways someone can undermine their divorce case.  

Here, I review the top six in how to lose your Ohio divorce case.

 

1.  Abandon Your Children

You should leave your children with your spouse and rarely see them.  Do not call your children,   Make sure you miss their choir concerts, school plays, soccer games baseball games softball games, and football games.  When you do have your children, you should go out with your friends and have other people watch your children.  When you are home with your children, you should sleep or spend a lot of time on your cell phone or playing video games.  If you are playing video games, do not play video games with your children.

either.

2.  Repeatedly Give Up

After your attorney files motions for you and prepares for hearing, make sure you tell your spouse that you are really willing to settle for much less than what your attorney is asking for.  Give in on these points at the hearing, too.  Make sure your testimony is the first time your attorney learns about your willingness to give in.

When you are in a face-to-face negotiation with your spouse and the attorneys, do not give your attorney the chance to reject a bad offer from your spouse.  Immediately accept this offer and watch your attorney try to squirm out of this pre 

dicament.

3.  Hire the cheapest attorney you can find.

Do not look for an experienced attorney.  Look for the one that will start for the lowest price and the lowest hourly rate.  Hopefully, this attorney will not even know the bad offer is bad and you can finish your case quickly while your spouse gets more than he or she should have gotten.

4.  Stop paying your lawyer

Never pay your attorney in a timely fashion.  Ignore your attorney’s requests to cover costs such as depositions, filing fees, and private investigator fees. 

 

5.  Call your lawyer just to complain

Email your attorney at 8:00 p.m. and then call your attorney at 8:00 a.m. the next morning to complain that your attorney did not answer your email.  Use this opportunity to randomly complain about your spouse, the court and how unfair this process is to you.  Make sure you do not give any facts in an organized fashion.  In doing so, it is really important that you mix recent events with ancient history and speculation about the future, and make it all sound like it happened yesterday.  If your attorney begins to suspect that these events did all happen yesterday and starts asking questions, ignore the questions and keep talking.  Do this at least once per week.  Several times per week, send emails notifying your attorney of your every passing thought.

6.  Do Not Bring In the Information Requested By Your Lawyer

Do not look for the documents your attorney requested.  Make your attorney blindly subpoena years worth of documents consisting of reams of papers.  When your attorney requests your help in looking through the papers, claim that you cannot possib  When your attorney asks for a time frame to look for the issues, make sure you give the wrong year.  For example, if you received a large check one month after Indianapolis won the Superbowl, make sure you never mention that fact in describing when you got the check.  Just say you got the check a long time ago.  You could also say you got the check in 2003.  Either of these answers will keep your attorney far away from the spring of 2007 (Indianapolis beat Chicago in the Superbowl in 2007).  Call your attorney often to see if your attorney found the information.  Get into a long conversation about how upset that issue makes you feel, without revealing any important information that would help your attorney.

ly remember any of this information, even if one of the biggest items is staring at you on the first page.

If you do help your attorney in the process, make sure you miss plenty of items.  A good way to do this is to wait until thirty minutes prior to your appointment with your attorney and just try to wing it.  Never bounce any of the information off of other people who might be able to help.  For example, if your deceased father gave you that check, do not ask your mother when the check may have been issued.  Do n   

ot show your mother the records and ask if that could be the check.
