Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck Meet with Celebrity Divorce Lawyer Amid Divorce Negotiations

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, who filed for divorce in August, were recently spotted dining out with their children. The couple is reportedly still in divorce negotiations and had a meeting with celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser on September 23rd.

According to TMZ, Jennifer and Laura arrived at the West Hollywood building where Jennifer and Ben have their respective offices at almost the same time. Although Ben was not seen by paparazzi, his car was parked in his parking space. The two held their meeting not at either of their offices, but at a “neutral location” in the same building.

The couple filed for divorce exactly two years after their lavish wedding, and there is a possibility that the divorce will become a “muddy litigation” because they did not have a prenuptial agreement when they got married in 2022. Under California law, income and property during marriage are considered “communal property of the couple” regardless of who earned it or purchased it. In the two years, the two have each worked on several movies and purchased a mansion in Beverly Hills. Jennifer has also launched a cocktail brand.

Laura Wasser has previously represented Angelina Jolie, Johnny Depp, and Kim Kardashian in their divorces, and also represented Ben when he divorced Jennifer Garner. It appears that Jennifer and Ben have been in discussions together about their divorce even before the divorce filing.
