Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade‘s ex-wife just fired her 12th lawyer — and filed an appeal in Chicago to declare the former lovebirds’ divorce agreementnull and void! It’s another Gossip Extra Heat exclusive: Siovaughn Funches, the ex-Mrs. Wade, filed her intention to appeal a family court’s ratification of a deal allegedly reached by Wade’s lawyers and her attorney in July. Funches says she never agreed to the highly-publicized settlement and never even signed it. And actually, she just fired Brian Hurst, the high-profile Chicago lawyer who worked on the deal that already paid her $5 million cash, among other goodies. Hurst just said he was “terminated” but didn’t elaborate other than to say: “I’m in a result oriented business.” Hurst added that if the appeals court in Chicago sides with Funches — and that could take two years — a new trial could be ordered. In the end, Funches could conceivably be awarded more money from Wade, or she might have to return some of Wade’s millions back to him. Funches’ remaining attorney, Boca Raton legal eagle Lisa Macci, said Funches disagreed for several items in the settlement and it was adopted by the court over her objections. Among those was a schedule of fines in case she were to criticize Wade in public. The Wades have been divorced since 2010 and the ball player gained the custody of their two sons. Still, Wade and Funches have continued to duke it out in courts in Miami and Chicago.
