I don't know how it is over the pond there, but can you not fire her and hire someone else? That's a bit ridiculous...
. . . or spend a few hours on the interwebs and avoid paying a blood-sucking lawyer and do it yourself.
2 house purchases and 1 divorce and I never paid a solicitor a penny.
Srsly - once you get through the "Oh it's not as simple as that" bullcrap from the legal community, you'll find it's lemon-squeezy.
Way to create jobs in your local community, ********************** sure as hell aren't any fat-cat lawyers living in my community, bumface.
In terms of house buying and selling, UK solicitors charge an inordinate fee for completing forms you can fill in yourself in 5 minutes. They also negotiate, and my experience, as a negotiator, is that they're *****.
The same was true of the divorce. A few simple forms, a few court fees and a firm negotiating line allowed me to put the kids first, make sure I could afford to raise them, and still allow their mother to maintain a decent lifestyle.
