Mywife and I sadly separated some years ago. But we both took good are of our children, all at public schools and on. But I am the onewith the money, and she hates that.

Her spending, including revengespenin and also a little extra for a fighting fund meant he was burning lot of moneyevery month. I started asking her abot economies and expressing doubts abot the children's education - but e.Mailingabout it over months did not work so I invited her to lunch. Refused. Invited again pleasse. Refused. Another go
: hurragh I get to sit down and tlk turke around famiy finances edecation of the children.

I turned up right on time at the restaurant she suggested. Sh was not there. Unsual for her to be late I thought, and I started to reach for mobile phone to find out the problem traffic, whatever it was. Just then a man in jeans and a tea shirt who had been standing outside said: are you Mr X ? Yes, I said. Sorry, it's my job he replied, it's a divorce petiton. He handed me a bulky white envelope, then left.

I ordered a drink. Sat down and opened the envelope. It was not just a divorce petition. There was also a no notice high court worldwide asset freezing order and several overseas mirror actions.Also, the requirement to disclose all of my worldwide assets within 7 days or be in contempt of court.

Is this proper and legal service ? And if after that I made any panick stricken mistakes under this duress, then are any subsequent orders that were issued with the avantage of the information that I then disclosed valid at all - I mean if the first order was imprperly served (and was it or not?) then does - in UK or offshre - invalidate all orders which followed with the advantage of the subsequent informations divulged under the duress of the first service ?

Yes.

If you don't have a lawyer yet your going to need one quick. So far the service appears to be legal. Now the requests may not be. So to straighten that out you need legal council. Your in for the long haul with those kinds of games starting so early.

Yes, you identified yourself and a process server gave it to you in person, that is one of the better types of legal service.

The number of days to respond, varies by location, but you need an attorney at once.

*** and should have had one from day one of separation, preparing for this
