Waiting on my AOS after the termination of removal proceedings

Alright I am posting after almost 10 months again. Here's the link to my previous post:

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/270937-what-to-expect-while-in-removal-proceedings-help-needed/page__p__4148941#entry4148941

And here's my current situation:

My I-130 was approved in January 2011 but USCIS did not terminate the removal proceedings since the I-485 filed with the Texas center was incomplete (without medical examination) so my lawyer refiled the I-485 along with medical and the approved I-130 with the IMMIGRATION JUDGE. According to my lawyer, the I-485 would get transferred over to a USCIS office at some point and I'll get my Green card pretty soon. Well, my removal proceedings were terminated on March 29, 2011 and since then I've not heard a single thing from the USCIS. I do not have any new receipts for the new I-485 or nothing of that sort that proves that my lawyer just re-filed a new I-485 application. I called the USCIS and discussed this matter with one of the customer reps and after few days I got a reply saying that they are still investigating my case (please remember that I provided them with the old receipt number for I-485 that I filed in May 2010 and was finger printed for that as well). Now I have no clue about the current status of my green card. My EAD is going to expire in Oct 2011 and I have no idea whom to contact since I fired my lawyer as well. According to my friends (including the people on this forum), he was not doing the right thing and that's what I thought too. Could you please help me out?

Thanks

Here's the timeline if it helps:

Got married : March 16 2010 (while in removal proceedings)

Filed I-130: March 17, 2010

Filed I-485 , I-765 and I-131 on May 25, 2010

I-765 was denied on June 30, 2010 (for not filing I-485 with the immigration judge)

Refiled I-765 with Missouri Center on July 18, 2010

Received EAD on October 22, 2010

I-130 interview at the local St Paul MN office on December 16, 2010

I-130 approved in January 2011

USCIS denied to grant the motion of terminating the removal proceedings only based on approved I-130 and further asked to re-file the I-485 with the immigration judge along with the medical examination

New I-485 filed with the Immigration Judge along with the medical examination in March 2011

Immigration Judge terminated the removal proceedings on March 29, 2011

FIRED MY LAWYER IN MAY 2011

And since then waiting on my AOS or Green card

There will be a paper trail at the place the lawyer filed the I-485. Get in touch with the clerk of that court, inquire.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
