Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Can I be forced to pay wife's legal fees from my separte property? I live in Texas and have two kids. My attorney told me repeatedly that it couldn't be ordered, but it happened. When the other attorney cited case law, my attorney said there was new case law he didn't know about. Do I have recourse against my attorney?

Probably not. The Judge did something that your lawyer thought he couldn't do. I'm not sure how your lawyer's lack of knowledge is something that was the cause of your damages.
