Attorney's Job??

If someone hires an attorney, will the attorney ever act like a "mediator" between the two ex's. Example, all correspondence go through him, him solve their problems, etc., etc.. Doesn't seem quite fair if only one party is paying for this attorney. Won't he be on the paying party's "side"?

Do not take that route.. get an attorney to represent yourself and yourself only.

I guess my question is will an attorney do this for someone? The one I hired to go with me to court would not act as a "mediator". She said it would be too expensive. Is it expensive to go this route? and can it be done?

Well let me re phrase it again. What is ex supposedly has an attorney - not for sure one way or the other. But he has supposedly advised her not to communicate further with me and all communication start going through him. She did not let me know name address or anything. Am I require to go through him?

What normally is recommended is if both parties have an attorney, you should do eveything through the attorneys. Your attorney cannot consult with your ex if he has an attorney, now if he didn't have an attorney and you did, your attorney could be in contact with him..But once he has one everything goes through his attorney. Does that make sense? This is how I beleive it is.
