My STBX lives and works abroad. To overcome problems with paying the mortgage and endowment (he has no UK account and transfers were costly and sometimes late) he pays £3000 approx into my UK account. I then pay the direct debits for the mortgage/endowment (total £2400) and use whats left to live on.
It appears that because my "income" exceed the £2500 (approx) limit for Legal Aid I cannot qualify for Legal Aid. How am I supposed to pay any costs when I have no money?
I don't want to push my luck with STBX by asking him to change the arrangement in case he stops it altogether.

Any ideas welcome.
