Why can’t my spouse be ordered to pay counsel fees if they are the ones so “unreasonable” as to prolong the case?
As good business people, most attorneys would rather operate to get paid for their work as they proceed in the case. There is no “guarantee” that the Court will grant “attorney fees” in any particular case, and it is normally not wise to ask the attorney to operate as a creditor, “hoping” to get paid when the case is finished.
