Can't you change the will? The trust? Is it an irrevocable one?

Ish...no lawyer in his right mind would suggest you irrevocably transfer assets to your wife due to a terminal illness. All that could be saved would have been at the time, state inheritance taxes and the minimal probability that you would need "nursing/assisted home care." That said...the lawyer, and if he is dead any partner or firm he was connected to is liable for your inability to separate your assets from your wife.....or divorce her and get at least 50%. IF he's still alive, sue the bastard. If he's dead sue his firm or partners. get off your ass and find out what can be done....and then do it. If necessary....I'll drive, buddy! ShootieisTriggerHappy
