In 1976, I got an uncontested divorce in Galveston County, Texas, where I was granted half of my ex-husband's retired Air Force pay for life. We later created a codicil ensuring he pays me directly. Recently, he fell and broke his hip, and his wife delayed calling for help. Now, with him in the hospital and not fully conscious, I'm worried about receiving my payment on time. What should I do to ensure I get my money, especially since I rely on it for my living expenses?

I am trying to hire another attorney to represent my son. He asked for copies of the discovery to review, but the current attorney insists that we can only view them in the office. What can we do to convince the current attorney to provide copies, and is there a rule or statute that requires an attorney to provide them to his client upon request?
