Anything we should know?Good evening. I think it's important you know I was taken advantage of by my attorney who advertised herself as a "single mother, helping other single mothers without financial support". She would not ask for any additional funds nor divulge anything she'd found about my ex-spouse's home purchase with someone else during our marriage. She quit my case, only to return to request a quick settlement because I refused to borrow money to pay for more services. She had become disrespectful and was no longer interested in requesting any of the alimony she said I should receive by law. During the paper signing, after the brief Zoom court session, she changed the settlement to show that I would be handling the QDRO on my own. This woman had berated me, lied on me, and accused me of stealing paperwork. Paperwork! After changing the settlement, I had questions about the retirement benefits. Her response was, "You're smart. You can do this yourself." Knowing I didn't have access to any of the retirement information. The emails between myself, his attorney, and the court show my attempts. Ruby Knight Esq, said to remove her name from the emails, as she was no longer legally involved. Once removed, she exclaimed she'd been willing to help me with the QDRO for $500, as this was a separate case, she was done with my case, had done great work for the 10 years of settlement I would be receiving, and to call another attorney for assistance. I honestly didn't know what to do as she knew I did not have the resources to start over. When he had decided he was leaving, my ex-spouse began to remove all paperwork, clothing, and my vehicle, (he suggested it needed repairs) secretly while I was out of the home attending to my daughter's numerous ER visits and hospital stays. It was not until the court discovery that I became aware of his former apartment addresses, the names and ages of his girlfriend, and two new children for whom he'd purchased a new home during the selling of ours. The selling showed no money gained, but the purchaser was his personal friend and business associate. After the closing, he took me aside and said to seek child support and anything else I could get asap. I have survived threats, money withheld, and being homeless. I have a slew of college loans for my kids, and one new grad to show for it. And her sister, (seizures now under control), is a biology major (also in 4th year) so we have a ways to go. Having a very ill child, and no family support in Atlanta, it became difficult to stay employed. My severe auto-immune condition makes things more difficult, but I do all that I can. I thought this would help answer any how or why leading up to the settlement and afterward. Thank you, and have a good evening.
