I have been married since August 1996 and have 4 children ((2 girls (12 and 10) and 2 boys (3 and 2 months)). My wife is a stay at home mother.
In March 2005 I left the military after 10 years, due to the frequent deployments and the stress on the family. After collecting unemployment, I accepted a job in March 2005 with a sub-contractor for ship maintenance. Bills have constantly been an issue and we're currently filed in a Chapter 13.
3 years later, due to my qualifications at my current job, I've been assigned a three week temporary duty in Hawaii. I have tried to turn this down, but was informed that this is a contract requirement. Part of the hiring process was my ability to travel if required. Currently, my job is in jeopordy if I do not fulfill this requirement.
My wife has stated she wants a divorce due to my lack of support, my willingness to leave her solely taking care of the children, and has insisted that my job should not be prioritized over my family. She has contacted a lawyer regarding this issue and has requested of me before I leave on July
27th, a notorized plan to sell the house and split bills. Also stating that I would need to find a place to live when I return on August 15th.
Is it smart of me to sign or have anything notorized prior to my departure on the 27th, or should I wait until my return.
Thank you for any advice you may provide.
