More details to this question:
My ex constantly uses her lawyer to communicate with me which makes a bill for me with mine. This has been happening since the kids moved in with me. For 10 years we got along fine. Now it's never ending court lawyer fees.

The best way to deal with this usually is by taking the attorney's out of it and getting someone like a parenting coordinator involved. But this will depend on what the contact is for, most parenting coordinators will only handle specific issues that deal with the child.

It is not clear from the facts that this rises to the level of criminal harassment. You might discuss what action to take with your attorney.

This is not harassment. It is her right. And the reason she communicates through her attorney is because it is appropriate.

No, she has a right, as do you, to use the legal process and it will be protected unless she becomes totally ridiculous. Obviously she is not happy, which is normal for a woman whose children are no longer in her primary custody and should have a support obligation for them as well.

No, you cannot sue her for harassment. However, if she is bringing up frivolous issues, you may be able to get her to pay your attorney fees. Talk with your attorney about it.

Are the matters involving items for which you require counsel, or is she simply spending her money to cause you to spend yours over piddly meaningless trivia? If the matters are not the sort which would necessitate counsel on your part, perhaps it is time to release your counsel from further service and just politely respond to further letters directly. Discuss this with your counsel beforehand.

You could cut the cost by simply notifying your lawyer and her lawyer to send the correspondence directly to you.
