Re: divorce fee dispute arbitration nyc

You are asking for specific advice, which is impossible to give on a message board.

If you are unhappy with your lawyer, you should consult with another one or two, to get a second opinon. If your current lawyer failed to request for counsel fees, it might be a mistake, and it might be fixable. It also might be due to your husband not having income or assets too.

There's just no way to tell based on a few sentences of information.
