Legal Question in Legal Ethics in Florida
Attorney
Dear Sirs/Madam,
I have been trying to get a divorce
since March 2007. My attorney has
never forced my almost ex to abide
by the laws deadlines.My almost
ex has never provided the total
required paperwork.My attorney
has never forced his hand to turn in
what the law requires.I know this
is a 50/50 no-fault state. Should I
complain to the bar association? I
am 50 years old and only have a
GED,and watch children in my home.
I helped him get a degree in law
enforcement,thinking until death
parts us,he has almost 30 years in
the FRS system.I have 27 years
invested in this .I don't need to
be taken advantage of and not
have what me and my minor son
are entitled to.I am not a trouble
maker,I just want what is rightfully
ours.I don't want his girlfriend to
get anything,she can have him.

Re: Attorney
Sounds like you need a new lawyer. Sit down with your current lawyer and ask the hard questions that you have and, if you are not satisfied, get a new lawyer. Do not delay.
