When is it too late to change closing attorney? We’re in contract and have obtained both mortgage and coop board approvals. The attorney hasn’t been responsive or able to give us any kind of guidance on timeline. I’m 35 weeks pregnant and would love to close and move into the new home before the baby is here. I don’t mind spending double legal fees.

Talk to your agent and tell them to get the attorney in line. Attorneys are typically very accommodating to agents because that's where they get work

Sorry you're experiencing this. Had a similarly poor experience with my attorney. Charging me $3,500 too, in UES. How much did they charge you?

Once, when I was little, I was playing Monopoly with my cousin. I was the banker, and I liberally “quantitatively eased” myself whenever he wasn’t looking.

I got unlucky and lost the game but I threw an absolute FIT, accusing my cousin of cheating because I knew how severely I’d cheated myself. How could he have won if HE didn’t cheat?!

Donald Trump’s righteous, desperate conviction is that of a losing cheater. I only hope he gets the time out he so richly deserves.
