Am I correct in assuming the attorney doesn't get paid until AH signs either? Any way you can just back off and wait it out until it becomes important to him? It sounds like the attorney, or secretary, is covertly blaming you for the problem. Can you get a different attorney? Or go to the bar association with a complaint about this one? I'm sure there are plenty of other things you could do, as well. But those are some that come to me.
