New York
Greetings, I am in a divorce proceeding. I am a male with a male attorney.
My lawyer was asked to be lead counsel on a different matter with my soon to be ex-wife's attorney who is a female. I've heard my lawyer bantering with his other lawyers about how my wife's attorney "wants him".
I find this inappropriate to say the least. My question is this. Is it proper for my attorney to accept my wife's attorney's request to be her lead counsel on a "large" case that she acquired, while he's still supposed to diligently defending his client? I feel he's lost some interest in my concerns. Thank you,
