Default I140 approved pending 485 Attorneys firm split what to do

Hi ,
I have a approved I 140 and had filed for my 1485 back in 2005 and till now have been working on h1 and regularly extending my EAD , and AP , now the firm( firm A) which actually filed my 485 petition has split ( A and B)and my case papers are with attorney A
now come july 2007 , i file my wife's 485 that is filed by attorney B , now the situation is such i dont know who has my papers . I do have copies of filed 485 and approved I140 . I want to inform USCIS that all the correspondence not to be sent to Either A or B but to be sent directly to me , so How do i go about doing that , the only reason I ask this is so that i have more control over my case cause the above attorneys were picked by my company and not very forthcoming when talking to me , even though I am the one who paid for all the services

PLEASE .. PLEASE Help me

Default Ask attorneys for 485 files

You should ask both law firms to send you your 485 paperwork, assuming you are listed as the client. they might not send you any I-140 documents, since this was the employer's filing, but the 485 documents should give you what you need. You should write to CIS saying that you are no longer represented by attorneys and ask them to send all documents directly to you. Unfortunately, CIS can be very slow in acknowledging these requests, so it is likely that correpondence will continue to go to one or both attorneys.
