We went to court the other day in reference to my stepdaughter's child support order. My husband feels that our lawyer clearly screwed up our case by not listening to our needs. He brought a load of evidence (my husband) that should have probably been submitted, but our lawyer complained that it was too much information for the judge that it needed to be a simpler case than a bunch of numbers etc... So we are awaiting a decision in two weeks but my husband is pretty confident that it won't work in our favor and this judgment that she is asking for is an extremely excessive amount such that 1. we won't be able to pay it 2. my husband will basically be paying ALL expenses for his child plus thousands extra for some nice extra cash. His ex does not pay a dime towards his daughter b/c his payments cover everything right now including extra activities, private school etc.... She wants more. It's awful. Is there anything we can do to get this evidence in, reargue, or anything?|||1) Wait until the outcome of the case before you do anything
2) Your lawyer probably knows best--they spent years in law school and see this stuff everyday
3) Judges have a LOT to do---they can't and don't want to see every little thing--your lawyer was probably right about synthesizing the evidence (which may not even have been admissible to begin with)
