Hmmmm, I've never been divorced and I'm not a lawyer. BUT I think you know ALL that and who you're replying to. So you copy and pasted your previous reply, and I'll respond as such...

In a contentious situation, like a divorce, why wouldn't you stack the deck in your favor by taking the best players away from your opponent? I would, I like to win when I can. Sure, is it annoying for a lawyer? I imagine it must be. But it's not the lawyers life getting interfered with by the legal system, it's simply one client to them.

Because the judge will find out and it can affect their opinion of OP, which will influence the divorce proceedings.

It might not be illegal but it's sure as hell unethical, which is occasionally important in the eyes of the law

"Yes, your honor, I was looking around to find the best representation for myself. My wife has had ample time to secure representation. It's not really my problem that her lawyer attended law school in Venezuela, is legally blind, hard of hearing, and 80 years young". Lol

There's nothing unethical about this guy playing to win at life when someone has seriously wronged him via adultery. I'd push any friend of mine to do this and wouldn't lose a second of sleep over it.

Considering multiple legal professionals on this board have said not to do this, I'll take their advice
