and very sorry atty fees are part of the issue. I had a retainer for mine, and only 'extras' were court fees, which were minimal. And avoided a trial, which both my attorney and the judge wanted to avoid. I might have done somewhat better, cash-wise, with a trial (according to ME, anyway,) but am OK with my pension + 2 survivor pensions.

Never heard of a forensic accountant. Sounds interesting, for a 'mystery' tv series, anyway.

I understand that e.mails, or regular mail, puts clouds over a day, esp when depression looms, which I was able to shake off after my atty said to me "He's a sociopath." Had a BIG AHA moment, and let go of anti-depression meds that week, 'cold turkey.'

I just found a couple mail messages, in cleaning up my stuff, and ALMOST laughed at them.

2 year anniversary of his death is in 1 week, so expect to hear 'cries' from daughters, but surely not from me.

Life continues, mop.
