First order of business is to formally complain to the California Bar Association by filing a complaint against the shyster and demand full reimbursement of the retainer.

Start the process by visiting this site: www.calbar.ca.gov/calbar/pdfs/DispComp.pdf

Secondly, totally ignore the ridiculous suggestion you must endure further stonewalling by paying a personal visit to the attorney’s office. Or that you need to be certain that you don’t we him any more money. DOUBLE DUMB!
