Wow this sounds so familiar to my husband's experience for the last 2 years. The only thing his ex agreed to was an uncontested divorce, which I was glad for because I am now married to him. The rest of the outstanding issues of their divorce have been dragging on for what seems like forever. He finally did fire his lawyer on her advice since she realized after dealing with his ex and her lawyer that there was no negotiating with his ex, nor did his ex want to deal with the issues left outstanding. My husband still uses his lawyer for advice but she is no longer on retainer. Recently he started court proceedings and is still only getting lots of emotional responses from his ex, but at least he is moving forward with a case conference. This is further than he has gotten in 2 years waiting for his ex to discontinue with the emotion and deal with the issues at hand. My advice start court proceedings, on your own if you are willing to do the legwork. There is lots of help out there to get you through this.
