Re: Lied to by attorney

Dear Sir/Richard

If you feel/know that your attorney did you wrong - without
sounded like you're trying to get even because you lost -
then file a complaint with the local bar association - and
don't think that the attorney will be discipled or disbarred -
because most likely he/she will not - family cases are very
emotional cases.

Remember this - there are small children or child involved -
and it is their interest that needs to be at the forefront of
it all.

Never think you are going to hurt your ex-wife by holding
child support from her or other hurtful tactics. Because
you're hurting your children. Always keep in the back of
your mind - YOUR CHILDREN GROW-UP and know what's going on.
Another words, those children will know if there are hurtful
tactics going on from either spouse. Children are not
stupid. Their minds are not dull. So be wise and live a
quite and less stressful life and do good towards your
children through your ex-wife.
