Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York

My Divorce attorney charged me $33k for a divorce he said would cost me $10k, I only had 12k annual income at the time.i paid him $9k and then refused to pay the rest he put a lien on my home 9 years ago for $24k . I want to negotiate now but he refuses to give me a counter offer. I can not afford the lien amount but I offered him another 5k and he says he will get back to me but never does, it’s been two months now, where do I go from here as the lien is accruing interest?

You may need an attorney to have the lien removed.

You waited over nine years to ask someone for help about this?

You're going to have to see a lawyer and let him/her figure out what to do.

Good luck.
