Re: lawyer did not represent properly in divorce
Obviously, your son needs to talk to some divorce attorneys, and find one who has the experience and willingness to assist. No advice over the internet will help, you need a new lawyer.
i am near Paterson, northern NJ. I would charge a fee for consultation, and review the information presented, and advise. Call me if i can assist your son. 973 890 0400
