In a civil suit as the plaintiff, the defendants filed a motion for summary judgement. I had no knowledge of this motion, was never advised by my attorney what this motion could mean and had no participation in resisting the motion. Also my attorney has no accounting of the $7,000 paid to the law firm as retainers. Doesn't my attorney has the responsibility to inform me of anything that is going on in my case. As I found out later, my attorney didn't even write the resistance brief. He gave it to a young attorney in the firm. I never met with him. He didn't know my case. He didn't include crucial material facts in the resistance brief, the reasons why the suit was filed in the first place. The material facts I speak of are all in depostions and recorded testimony. Left out of brief! Please advise if you can Thank You!What is the name of your state?
