A: I have no doubt it is stressful. That is why I and other attorneys try to ensure everything is final (or easily finalized) when the judgment is signed. Did you have an attorney 15 years ago?

Obviously, you can try to convince him to take you off the mortgage yourself. You could hire an attorney. He may be responsible for your attorney fees.
