Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland

My attorney filed a motion for sole custody and to appoint a trustee over the marital property in August 2011. It wasn't heard until April 23, 2012 and then continued until July 2012. The Judge asked for the attorneys to have a status hearing in which they did. My attorney and I agreed to most of the conditions. Now my attorney is saying he cannot get a hold of my ex's attorney to finalize the conditions and to touch basis with my ex. I did that and my ex claims to not have a clue as to what I am talking about. My attorney act as though he doesn't know what to do. What recourse do I have? Do I need to seek new representation? This attorney has been paid already.

Your attorney should send a written proposal to your ex's attorney. If he gets no response within a reasonable period of time, he should schedule a follow up court hearing so the court can resolve the outstanding issues.
