Do I have to involve solicitors at every step

Hi
I posted previously to question whether or not I should try to deal with the divorce administration myself to keep costs down. I took fellow wiki users advice to use the solicitors, as my stb-ex is of the controlling and manipulative kind. He has received the draft Petition for comment via my solicitor and true to form, he''s sent me a long email trying to encourage me not go ahead with divorce proceedings. I have not replied but want to know if I should be sending all of his emails on to my solicitors for their records? I don''t expect them to do anything with his emails, unless they need to. But do they need to have them on file? Perhaps the emails provide a useful insight into the type of person we are dealing with here. But, will forwarding every email to my solicitors incur extra costs? Any advice please?
Thanks

As you are represented, it is proper that your ex communicates with your solicitor directly, rather than you. This may mean additional charges for you, however, as they have to inform you of all communications received from the other side. The alternative is to forward only the relevent communications to your solicitor, and not forward on any rants or non-divorce related emails.
