Will she settle?

I never even met my judge.

I finalized my contested divorce in 6.5 months, and had mediation twice. The first time lasted for 2 hours before she "felt tired" and it ended with zero progress. Fast forward a few months later, and we had a 9 hour marathon session where we finalized the parenting plan and the marital split. The difference? I had trial set as a backstop for the second mediation session. She knew if she didn't make a deal with me that day, 6 weeks later a stranger in robes would be making life altering decisions on her behalf. Her imagination was my ally. Even if mediation fails, you can expect an 11th hour deal on the courthouse steps. 95-98% of all divorces are finalized before trial.

Ha. No. Still waiting for her to finish up that refi she has been “working on” for the last eleven months. LOL.

Nope, she'll have lawyers and "friends" saying she can get more out of you.

Nope. Trial is 4/24. She blew up mediation (4 sessions, 8+ hours), she hasn’t updated her financials yet (please explain $50k missing), and she’s still complaining about small parenting annoyances. It’s so ridiculous you can’t make this stuff up.

No one knows your ex better than you, what do you think
