I'm going to see the attorney tomorrow. I probably won't be able to retain him so I need to get as much info at the consultation as possible. Besides custody, child support and spousal support, what else should I ask him about?

You want to know how things work in your state, what happens if you file first, what happens after you file, do you go to court or how is that part handled (in my state the attorney just submitted it and the judge reviewed it and the clerk let her know if there were problems), what unusual things might be included in a custody agreement that you wouldn't expect (like are college expenses usually addressed, contingencies if one party wants to move way, etc.), and ask him what he thinks you should know that you don't already know.
