I was divorced in January 1998 in the state of Texas. I'm still trying to resolve problems related to my divorce and my attorney will not take calls or return calls to me. One issue is funds from a retirement account that was supposed to go to me that was overlooked and a qualified domestic relations order was not filed. Now I have to hire another attorney to get one. The other issue is that I agreed to sign my home over to my ex because he took responsibility for debts. It was ordered in the final decree that this was to take place in my attorney's office during April 1998. The signing never took place but I thought because it was in a court order I would not be held responsible for the house and I moved out as required in the court order. After April 1998 my ex let the house be forclosed on and now the foreclosure is on my credit report. I questioned my attorney about this and she said it wouldn't have mattered if the papers had been signed it would still go on my credit report. Is this true or was she just covering herself? Does any or all of this constitute malpractice?
What has happened is the house was forclosed on and my ex did not pay the bills but filed bankruptcy. I now have the house, the bills, and the bankruptcy all on my credit report and my ex has a six figure income and my attorney has my $10,000 and my kids and I have nothing and never will have anything as a result of this. Any suggestions?
