If your husband's attorney will not help you finalize the divorce, your best bet is to hire an attorney of your own. Because your case is almost finalized, it shouldn't cost you a great deal to find someone to help you get it done. It could be that the attorney hasn't been paid by your ex, so he's withholding the final paperwork. Or there could be other issues at play with his attorney causing the delay (illness, travel, etc.). You just never know.

It is a difficult question to answer without seeing the decree, but most attorneys make sure that the final decree disposes of ALL property, whether stated or not.  It may well be, however, that your decree has some language regarding any assets not disclosed can be re-allocated.  If that is the case, it would be worthwhile to pursue.  However, again, usually the decree simply states Wife take all 'other' debt in her name and Husband take all 'other' debt in his name.  This type of blanket language is generally sufficient to negate any motion for new trial or attempt to bring the case back before the court on a property distribution argument.  Again, this will depend largely upon the lieral wording of your decree.  Find an attorney local in your area and ask that they quickly look at it.  Takes about 10 minutes.

You would have to reimburse the community for principal payments and the community could get a share of any appreciation. See an attorney to help you prove your claims.
