Sorry to hear that you have to seek an attorney with your ex! Years ago, my ex and I split and I did get an attorney(he was gay), even tho they did not recognize same sex couples. It never got to court and my ex allowed me 6 hrs to go in the house and get the stuff I needed. It was ugly but I did get the sentimental stuff I wanted.
A break-up is never easy, and hopefully if you do find an attorney, she will come to her senses to let you have your things. I don't know if it will help you, but try and find a gay attorney as they are more empathic of your situation. Again, sorry to here of your troubles. Good luck to you.
