I probably misunderstood you, but given that mom has a claim for maintenance against dad, which you can easily calculate, if you know both incomes and financial burdens, part of this claim for maintenance would be that dad has to finance in advance mom's legal costs for the action for support against dad, if she can't.

This means, dad has to give mom the money mom needs to pay mom's lawyer who will then sue dad for maintenance if dad is still not encouraged to compromise after losing his first trial.

So dad pays for both lawyers under any circumstances if she has a claim for maintenance, at least over here.

Is that what you mean, did i miss the irony?
