What is the name of your state? New Jersey, Monmouth County
My Fiance is in the middle of a divorce that has been prolonged for three+ years now. He has had the same attorney since 10/04 who has an excellent reputation in our county. His reputation, however is only held high through the courts, not with his clients. My Fiance is suffering emotionally and financially due to this divorce. His lawyer is rarely in contact with him, never returns phone calls, and only sends paper work through the mail. At this point in the game it would make no sense to change attorney's, this process would have to start all over and he is already financially in debt to this man. My Fiances ex (soon to be) wife is trying to take him for everything he has. He is a good man and an even better father. His ex holds their child over his head, hides the little boy from his dad when she feels like it, and makes rules all the time on when he can and can not see his son. Is this legal? is she allowed to hold him from his daddy? if not what are the necessary procedures to take in order for the nonsense to come to an end. She is asking for backed up rent (in a home she is being evicted from), she is asking him to pay her $410 per WEEK, $160 for child support the rest for herself. She is asking for things we can't give. She has been so vicious, will not show up for assigned court dates, is uncooperative with handing in necessary paper work, is emotionally abusive (calling and screeming even in the middle of the night, or in front of her child). She stalks our home (but we do not have proof). She is in need of severe mental health counseling (I can say this because I have spoken to her and I do work in the field). If any one out there has any advise please I am desperate. My Fiance and I are ready to move forward with our lives, get married, have children, etc... I feel as though my life has been dictated by this woman since I started dating him. I love him more than anything and would wait for ever if I had to, but I really wish there was something he could do in order to speed up this process. It has gone on long enough. We are all suffering, me, him, and his 6 year old child.
