client's pay us well and rightly expect us to be

I quite agree, if one could be accurate. And, quite possibly, in your
jurisdiction, one can. In mine, however, where I have been litigating these
matters
off and on for thirty-five years, what I see these days is the Court judging
by the seat of its collective pants. I know that divorce law is supposed to
be equitable in nature, but that does not even begin to allow for the
inconsistency of the judgments we are getting here and now. I fail how it
would be
possible for even the wildest guess a trained law student might make in this
area to outperform in uncertainty the result one might get from a trial.
Therefore, I fail to see what might be learned except that everything in Family
Law is a surprise, and any advice given may well be advice regretted in the
face
of a litigated result.
