I saw the new lawyer yesterday. Well...on a positive note, he was very nice and seemed very concerned and sincere. However, he couldn't do anything for me. B/c my decree has not been sent, it is still an ongoing case, and he can't take over for my old lawyer, even if I fire my old lawyer. However, what he did VOLUNTEER to do was be an advocate for me, so to speak. He said that he would call my lawyer and my exh lawyer and see what was going on. He said when he found out he would call me, probably by the end of the week. He did tell me that this is the most absurd thing/case he has ever heard. I don't know what to do. My hands are tied!

What else can I do?

Did you contact the bar association yet? I would call them, not write a letter, btw (I think you'd said you were going to write a letter at some point).

Put a fire under your existing attorney to get the decree. It seems that if you focus on getting that then you can proceed from there.

Keep on it - you are almost there - keep us posted!

Kait,


If a phone call to the bar association doesn't help, nor a call to the lawyer, then maybe a phone call to the local paper would?
