I'm Mr. Rockwell.

I'll be dealing with your divorce.

Let's talk about it.

I'll be dealing with your case.

Your phone call was very brief.

You explained to me that you have a husband.

Yes, I have a problem with my husband. You have a problem with your husband.

Sorry, my English is not well.

I need to help.

I understand, I understand.

And how long have you been married with your husband?

A long time.

Many years?

Ten.

A long time.

And now you're going to change your way of life.

Lifestyle.

And your husband, has he made any problems?

Is he... Oh, look, the most important thing is this. I will take care of your

case.

I will prepare a case.

And I'll give you the best case possible.

For me, the best?

I've never lost.

Okay. So, the last time someone had something similar with your

case, and don't speak so much English, so...

I will hire a translator to translate for you.

And this will be an extra cost.

It will be more expensive.

Expensive for who?

For you.

For me? Because you have to pay me.

You have to pay me. Me?

Yeah. I think that I pay my husband.

Yeah, well, the price does go up, unfortunately.

I'm going to understand now about money.

He has too much money. He has too much money. And you would like some.

I need half.

You would like half of the money.

Minimum. Minimum.

Minimum.

Do you understand me? Yes.

I mean, of course. I mean, most women, when they divorce their husbands, they

like to take half.

And unfortunately, in Texas, they can't do that. But it's another country in

America. Well, no, no, it's a state in America. But they have a different

with divorce.

So, what I'll do is...

What? No, no, that's a bad idea.

I was thinking for you to...

pay for the beginning of the case half of the money.

And when I finish the case, you pay me the other half of the money.

I think I understand.

And I will take up front four and a half thousand to

deal with your case.

And when you get half of the money,

I will also have 10 % 10 % for you? as a fee if I

can get you I understand it yes but if you I take if you get half

of the money then maybe you could get an extra 10 % more you could get 60

% but okay so if I can get

you 60 % of your husband if your husband

if you take 60 percent not half more 60

from your husband then you can give me 10 percent how much money

does your husband have uh i don't know too much millions millions okay

have you called any other lawyers

Yeah, and what did they say did they say why I mean I in fact I know what they

would say they would they would refuse the case Do you have evidence of?

your husband causing a problem Okay,

so your husband your husband He's a good man

Sometimes and the biggest problem

is what?

he's a liar he's a liar?

oh,

so he's had sex with another lady so he's had an affair it's called an

affair affair when your husband had sexual

encounters with another person then it's an affair

So if you have evidence of this, you collect this, you give to me photographs

of the girl or the guy. I don't know what your husband is like.

And you can give them to me and I will prepare a case and maybe we'll be able

get you in the court in the next three months.

Three months?

Three months, which is fast.

Because it usually takes up to about a year.

I'll show you something.

Here.

After our phone call, I could tell that you were in a very tricky

position.

Here is the contract that I received from...

Your husband's lawyer.

Because he also has a lawyer.

You have a lawyer, which is me.

And your husband has a lawyer. And this is the contract he would like you to

sign.

Do you understand?

No.

No.

Well, that number here...

says $12 ,000 $12 ,000 that's

all he's willing to pay you if you sign here.

Would you accept $12 ,000?

You'd like a drink? Yeah.

And the lawyer he's chosen is a very good lawyer.

So, yeah.

I know this person.

He's also very successful.

I'll get you this drink.

Maybe you need this.

But thank you very much for the drink.

But I can't... I'm driving, so... Yeah, only juice.

It's only juice?

Really? Yes, you can.

Okay, I'll have one then.

Anyway, thank you.

And hopefully you have a good case. Yes, I hope.

12 ,000.

And he says here, this is from four months' time.

So in four months' time, he would like to take you to court.

Because it says here, there's an office here, that the courts have actually,

that they're actually prosecuting you for cheating.

Having an affair.

So, if he can prove that you have cheated, if you have had

an affair, you, then you will not get 12 ,000.

Anyway,

look, the most important thing is

here.

What is it?

Okay, this is my contract.

Right. So this is your name here.

You'd have to fill this out yourself.

You'd have to sign here.

You have to prove that this is your address where you're staying.

But the thing is, you live at the same address.

as your husband now you live together in the same house now yes so this would be

the same address and also here it says here

10 % of the fee

And next time we're speaking about more for you.

But I do need pay for my time. I don't... This is not a charity.

Oh,

sorry, my English is bad. This is not legal aid.

If you could apply for a legal

aid, maybe you could find... The government could fund you.

But unfortunately, I only take tasks.

We can speak on the phone.
