Oct 2014

sued by my siblings my lawyer told my siblings' lawyer that my wife could not afford to buy my sibling out after my mother died.

He was not helping us at all and I went to my siblings lawyer with papers proving my lied through her teeth about loans she took out on the home before my mom died.

I was surprised he would tell me such a thing. Perhaps because he like I was disabled, I don't know. Guess my lawyer did not think I would ever hear of this, never mind that I would have the balls to go to other lawyer's office.

Of course we fired him and we are still in the house ten years later.
