i live in bakersfield, california. i filed for divorce three years ago, my lawyer streched the time and fee by setting up court dates and canceling at the last moment, or being in court but not dealing with my case. another tactic she uses is to avoid giving information then charging for the calls. she also charges for "preparing time" but when we get together she demonstrates ignorance of the case (there was no preparation as she claims). she is late to meetings, uses client's time to make long telephone calls, etc. in short, she gives very poor service. three years and $9000.00 later, the divorce is not finished yet. now she wants me to hire a different lawyer to divide the property. this is not the divorce of rich people that could be very complicated, but of a working couple, with only the house and retirement funds to deal with. What recourse do I have? How can I make her finish the job I hired her to do? The only reason I am posting this is because after reviewing what there is in the web about legal problems, the only one not touched is the client-lawyer problems. LC
