Hi all,
In a nutshell my solicitor isn't communicating but I can't afford to dump him. This involves an inheritance (house) to which I am 50% party ... my sister being the other beneficiary. I am living in the house, and she wants to sell.
Most worryingly, about a month ago my solicitor wrote to me saying that my sister had been on to him about a letter she sent (through her solicitor) 2 months prior to that. He never told me about that letter, and it going unanswered isn't helping the already bad relationship I have with my sister.
I asked my solicitor shortly after this to send me a copy of every letter he'd sent to her. I have my way of functioning, and laying it all out in front of myself is one way of 'working through' in terms of thought process. This was nearly a month ago, and he's still sent nothing.
I would dump this guy in a heartbeat if I felt I could, but that would involve a payoff from me at this point and I can't afford it. I think he's completely useless though, and suspect that he's happy to let this situation engineer itself worse.
I've also noticed that his letters to me seem somewhat sympathetic to himself ... I mean he tells me nothing and then writes about how not replying to a letter (which he told me nothing about in the first damn place!) could make the situation bad!!!
Any ideas / advice much appreciated.
