Attorney's Fees & Costs

Has anyone had trouble recovering their attorney's fees from the ex??? I'm the one who retained the lawyer and my stbx did not get his own. So, my lawyer wrote into the settlement agreement that we would split the costs. I had already given the lawyer a $3k retainer, so stbx owes 1/2 of the 3K plus more. Also, stbx never returned the form that would have allowed me not to appear in court.

STBX is the one who wanted out of this marriage, betrayed me, etc. Now I am cleaning up the mess.

Thanks,

R

My papers said the same thing.
