I just wanted to add, that I NEVER got to finish being deposed. My husband was deposed, my daughter was deposed and they tried to talk about how they were not "in charge" of my ponies and horses and that was "my" thing. Yet they were both pushed into answering and I can see how that did not "help me" or my case at all. And my ex attorney, again was not in the "now" enough to see it either.
Here it is all this time passed and yet I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO BE HEARD or
FINISH TELLING MY STORY either. Instead, everyone else is talking, giving their POV,
and NO ONE IS LISTENING TO ME. I never got to finish being deposed, my attorney
got so he was declining so badly that he did not pay attention to the opposing side's requests to finish deposing me. Even when I got so bad, and really needed to TELL MY STORY and sat across from my ex attorney, LITERALLY BEGGING HIM to please remember scheduled depositions and NOTIFY ME, all he did was let me talk and then stand up and tell me that I should be happy he gave me that time because after all,
he is an important successful attorney and makes $800 per hour. Well, that would have been "ok" IF HE ACTUALLY DID LISTEN TO ME. No, instead he forgot more depositions and it is even down in my court records as "FAILURE TO APPEAR".
Yesterday, was all about me trying so damn hard to be heard, and all I got was people on the other line TELLING ME THEY DID NOT HAVE TIME, THEY WERE TOO BUSY AND
ARE REALLY ONLY INTERESTED IN GIVING ME AN EAR, MAYBE, IF I CAN GIVE THEM
MONEY.
What is SO HARD for me, SO VERY HARD is that so much of this challenge is ALL IN WRITING too. In my deposition however, my ex lawyer's needs were only entered as
a kind of break, can't remember what it was called.
No matter how hard I try, what I say, I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO BE HEARD.
OPPRESSED? Wow, it is so obvious yet I CAN'T GET ANYONE TO SEE IT.
