You can just ask if you don't have a lawyer. You could also hire a lawyer to do it for you.

If everything has been signed and you have a copy of the signed final documents you can take them to court. Otherwise, you can make a motion to compel submission of final documents or wait until the trial date at which point if the divorce is not final both of you will have to show up and you can tell it to the judge.

Ask him to prepare it, let you review it and then ask him to submit it.

File a Request for Hearing for Final Judgment of Dissolution with the Court. In your request, state that mediation is completed, all matters resolved and all documents are being held up by the attorney. That will force the attorney to file the papers.
