I went to reputable lawyer on Feb 3,2010 and received 2 responses and can’t get them to sign off so I could get a good lawyer. Any suggestions where to go next?

Hi, i slipped on a wet floor and cut my neck open on a upside down chair leg. I went to the hospital in a ambulance. Then i saw the doctors about 3 times for my pain and scars. I have a lawyer. How much money do you think i can win?

My sister is going through a divorce, she had to go and get a order of protection against him, he is in the airforce so she had to leave their home on base. She took her car, the bedroom suit, her personal items (clothing, makeup), and her dog. She left him EVERYTHING else, all of the furniture, electronics, kitchen items, everything! two days after she got her things, he came and took her car, so he had both vehicles and had them locked up so she could not get them. She has went to court for the divorce, her lawyer was suppost to have a conference call with the other lawyer and judge on the 23rd of may. Today we find out the other lawyer typed up an order and sent it to the judge on may 3rd and he signed it! It is outragouse, she gets nothing, she gets her dog and the bedroom suite, but she has to pay him 0 for it. And she is awarded the car and has to pay him 00 for the last six months of payments, (which they have only been seperated for 4 months) he keeps everything else.
she is so upset, she had to leave her job on base when they seperated, and since she does not have a vehicle can not get a job, he has savings since they have been married plus he has been getting extra pay for being married the last few months, but does not have to give her a penny. instead he has been supporting his new girlfriend, even giving her my sisters cell phone. my sister did not do anything wrong to cause the divorce, he brought her down here for thanksgiving and refused to let her come see her family, so we went and got her, and he left her down here when he went back home, changed the locks on the house, and started calling a threatining her, that is when she got the order of protection. he got everything he asked for in the divorce, even though he was at fault
we live in illinois, the bedroom suite was not marital, it was hers, she left all of the marital items ,except the dog and her car(which he came and got, and wrecked) they have been married 3 years
her lawyer can not believe the judge signed the order with not even letting them have the scheduled conference to decide things, the judge is cleary biased, and to top it off, she had his 1st sergent calling and yelling at her on several occasions because she got an order of protection against him

My Mother in law is abused by his husband since last 40 years. She is not financially independent and so she keeps on complaining about her problems to his son ( my husband ). They live in India and my mother in law wants to be here in USA and my father in law doesnt want to be in USA because we dont tolerate his behaviour. So, my mother in law emotionally narrates her strories to his son. Now, my husband is encouraging his Mother to live separate and he wants to pay for her survival like rent of a house, furniture, kitchen accessories, TV, Fridge, Microwave, Washer dryer etc. And also he wants to give some 300 USD every month for her living expence. By doing this she will get her home separate and then she can move back and forth between USA and India and we will be paying her travel, medical expence. I think if she want to live separate from her husband then she should take help of lawyer and should ask for support money. Her son or we family are not responsible for her maintaince.
We are expecting and we recently got new house. my job is new and i work hard to save money and my husband just thinks of his mother. i dont mind in helping her but there is always a limit. Our priority should be new baby, not his Mom. She is her husband’s responsibilty. If she is not happy, she should fight for her rights in court rather depending on our money.

I have been married 4 yrs and sperarated for what will soon be 2 of those 4 yrs.If you want my reason for wanting a divorce read my last post.I moved out our home only taking my clothing and my dog with me because i was in a hurry and angry.At the time when i left we had all new furniture,kitchen item and decorations ect.In the divorce can i ask to be compinsated with a check for these item since i helped pay for them?We still have a joint checking account and a savings account in both our names open is it leagal for me to take half of the money in the joint checking account and savings without his permission?Most importantly do i have to talk to my estranged spouse?Can i have my lawyer inform him about the divorce?
oops sorry that kitchen items and of our home.Also i would like to add i am not trying to rob him blind or anything just get what i feel entitled too because i worked for it.

I’m asking this question for my boyfriend. He seperated from his wife in Sept. 2005 and is still not divorced. They didn’t have any children, but they did have a house and a timeshare. The house has already been sold and the assets were divided. The attorney did not help him at all, and in fact made him lose a lot of furniture, pictures, and other personal items. His "wife" is still using his medical coverage, and will continue to do so until the divorce is finalized. He has contacted his lawyer by phone and by email continually since late last year and the attorney has ignored all of his calls and messages…
Now my question is, what can he do to force this lawyer to finish the case, and just consider everything else a loss? Or should he get a new lawyer? If he did get a new lawyer, would he be able to sue the old one for the cost of everything he didn’t do? And can the lawyer be reported to the Bar? Thanks in advance!

we shared a bank account i added her to my acct and she added me to her credit card where we bought furniture for our apt and various items in the house and paid bills on…not to my knowledge she closed my account the bank re-opened it..canceled the credit card which is fine…i paid more than the monthly minimum for the credit card…is it legally her property to take if i was paying more than she did to the balance due each month and no late payments….she state since the credit card was technically her account and she added me I HAVE NO RIGHTS to the furniture…she just passed the ga bar and told me to get a lawyer and hung up the phone when i called her
i have proof that i made all payments…i have proof she only deposited 0.00 into the account only. emails, texts, and voicemail

A man walks into a bar. He sees a good looking, smartly dressed woman perched on a bar stool. He walks up behind her and says: "Hi there good looking, how’s it going?"

She turns around, faces him, looks him straight in the eye and says: "Listen, I’ll screw anybody, anytime, anywhere, your place, my place, it doesn’t matter. I’ve been doing it ever since I got out of college. I just flat out love it." He says: "No kidding?, I’m a lawyer too! What firm are you with?"
