My ex-husband and I have been back in court for the last year after having been divorced for many years. The lawyers are doing nothing, besides taking our money. It gets continued, and we have court status updates. How do I get a pro-bono lawyer? The money is running out and we are no where near a resolution. I make too much money to qualify for programs run by the state. I am told no lawyer will take my case if I currently have a lawyer. What can I do? If I ever get monies owed by my ex, I will have to give it all to the lawyer at this point.

If you are unhappy with your lawyer, you always have the right to fire them. The judge would then generally give you some time to hire new counsel.
Do know that litigation takes a long time and can seem, especially to those who are lucky enough not to be involved in much, to not be progressing, when if fact, the attorney is actively and vigorously prosecuting the case. I'm not saying this is the case in your situation or not, but do consider this. |
