Agreed, in my case I offered a settlement early on for uncontested divorce, literally dividing everything in half. My spouse hired an attorney whose website says he knows how to find the money the other side is hiding. Well, tens of thousands of dollars and 18 months later, we arrive at mediation and settle on the identical division, which just about everyone thinks is unfair because she took all the cash and home equity I get just the business assets. Risk doesn't really get priced in. But one of the worst things about it is that the mediator said she looked in really bad shape, like she'd been through the wringer. And we had complied with alacrity with her attorney's requests. I found that very inhumane of the attorney. Edit: I think I meant to reply to the child comment.
