professional conduct and ethics of legal representation
Asked on Oct 26th, 2014 on Family Law - California
More details to this question:
My fiance has paid his divorce lawyer $10,000.00 to handle his child support modification and visitation order. But since my fiance hasn't paid for the past 2years his back payments is incredibly high. Thus is the reason for hiring legal representation in which case the lawyer takes payment and then advises my fiance to leave the country and start a new life wherever he decides to go and just write his children and send them money when he can . And offers to help him with employment out of the country and encourages him to go . I am trying to understand how this will benefit our lives and future with his children .

Of course here is no way for me to verify your fiance's claim. If the lawyer actually did what your fiance told you, he should contact the State Bar of California and make a complaint.
