Legal Question in Family Law in California

My ex (who has an attorney) and I go back to a hearing on the 24 April 2013. I just received a Responsive Declaration of ...... on the Issue of Ongoing Spousal Support. I can not believe all the fabrications, speculations and outright lies in this document. Also, I have documented all monies I received from him 2010,2011,2012, 2013 and where it was spent. Example: April 2012 I received $400 from him. His Attorney filed an addendum to my documents and says he deposited and I received $6,943.33. We had a joint account but he opened it so I had no access to it during the process for this hearing. Do I file another document and hope it gets served prior to 24th or do I just tell the Judge my side during the hearing?

Spousal support is a complicated issue and you should not proceed without an attorney. I have handled several appeals on the issue and taught a seminar in the El Cajon Courthouse to attorneys on the issue. You should file a responsive declaration and you should also request an evidentiary hearing where you can testify and he can be cross-examined.
