Unethical practice?

What is the name of your state? Kentucky

First, I'm not sure if I'm posting in the correct area or not?

Some on here are familer with my case and I will spare the details. However, my question: When do you draw the line on "Unethical practices" by an opposing counsel or is it just a "fact of life?" Is there such a thing?

History, I had a conference call with my attorney pertaining to my ex not wanting to pay her child support as ordered. My attorney has conveyed to me on several occasions that he felt that my ex's attorney was "deleberatly" running up expenses and being unreasonable in the entire process and being unprofessional. My attorney even made a comment as to how the ex's attorney was "out of line" in our initial mediation hearing.

Is there anything I can do about this or just let it roll off my shoulders? I have cooperated in every aspect of the legal process except for the child support issue. I'm just trying to be proactive in my approach.

Thank you in advance.
