Is my sister entitled to her husband's retirement pension/ savings?

Answered by attorney Lori Nevias
Divorce lawyer at Lori Nevias, Attorney at Law
If your sister's attorney negotiated a very bad divorce agreement which your sister signed at his urging, this may be legal malpractice. But the statute of limitations is three years to start an action for legal malpractice, and you say the attorney is deceased, so it's not clear you has time to sue and even if she did, whether any judgment would be collectible, which wold be possible only if the estate is solvent. It may be possible to have the agreement rescinded on grounds of unconscionability depending on the terms.

Divorce lawyer at Browde Law, P.C.
Spousal support under those circumstances seems unlikely - at least in the long term. But what expenses to expect? Without a full review of your case it's impossible to tell.

If there is no reason for not releasing the escrow you should immediately contact authorities including the appropriate disciplinary committee in your area, and you should consider instituting an action to recover the funds.
