Lawyer doesn't file motion as instructed. What should I do?
I'll try to make a long story short. My lawyer contaced me via snail mail w draft of motion. He asked that I approve it or let him know if there were any changes. The next day, I left a voicemail and email indicating it was fine. I haven't heard anything from his since (it was 5 weeks ago that I approved motion). So, last week I started leaving voicemails and sending emails.
Today his secretary called and said that he hasn't filed it yet. I about blew a gasket. We both signed the contract which obligated him to pursue my interests etc. He also virtually never returns my calls or emails. This guy is also pretty expensive.
He is a custody attorney, and, I hired him because my ex was frustrating my visitation and completely refusing to cooperate. I hired him to file a motion to reestablish my visitation.
I called today and he doesn't return calls.
What should I do?
I really need to know.
