Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana

I got divorce in Indianapolis last year. We had a dispute over the marital property-I wanted it sold, she did not, and I didn't want my name left on the loan since I no longer lived there. My attorney advised me when we were going through the settlement with the courts, it would be in my best interest to allow the ex-wife to have an additional year to have the loan turned over into her name. (She already had a year to work on it before this, so she has had 2 years to get this done) Well, now as of December 14, 2011, the ex-wife still has failed to get the loan in her name only, and is now 5 months behind on house payments. I had to sign the quick claim deed for the home when the final judgement was entered. According to the court order, not only was I giving her an additional year, but if she were late on any payments, she would be held in contempt of court. So I have contacted my attorney, and she tells me the courts won't do anything about her being in contempt for the late payments and won't make her put the home up for sale. Is this right? Did my attorney railroad me? If so, what should I do at this point, or is there anything I can do? Thanks
