Elaine Joy Harrison

Already in shock and mourning about my wife's diagnosis of stage-4 cancer, my wife decides to divorce me after nearly 30-years together. I became homeless. We had careers, children and a home. At the time, I was working at home as a house-husband. My income was from Soc. Sec. Disability due to Bipol...ar Depression and ADHD. My accountant wife was my Payee. Out of my divorce money she paid for Elaine but not enough for me to have minimal shelter such as a "Sleeper Room". This led me to acquire a criminal record for the first time in my life, due to very serious and unfounded accusations about me. Now I am a convicted felon with 2 "Strikes"! This never, ever would have happened if I had a roof over my head! Was that asking for too much? Isn't that what I paid for? Isn't housing one of the most basic and fundamental issues during a divorce? Forgive me dear reader if I expected too much from my divorce attorney. Divorce and criminal law procedures where not classes I ever took at college. I was in great need of help and Elaine could have made more money. During the custody hearing Elaine let them say and do what ever THEY wanted without question or challenge of any kind. Weeks later, after firing her for incompetence and neglect, she sent a letter to the other lawyer essentially joining their side against me! At the age of 56, I must say this has been the shock of my life. And our poor children? They weren't allowed to have any contact with me (5 years!) during this, their time of greatest need. I don't know if they will ever heal. During High School graduation, one of my children was recognized on stage for having survived the worst crisis of anyone at school. I also know a previous client of hers who has experienced the same level of gross and shameful negligence. BUYER BEWARE!
