What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Louisiana
Ten years ago I initiated divorce proceedings from with my with an Attorney/neighbor of mine. Prior to this action he filed the Articles of Incorporation for my company, and handled various legal matter for the business.
During my divorce I found him to be a big time "File Churner" and cost me over $20K. I finally had enough, fired him. I made him deduct $500 from his bill when I picked up my file. Needless to say he wasn't too happuy about it.
Eight years later I have initiated legal action against a contractor for non-payment of his bill. The contractor has hired the same attorny I used for my divorce and business dealing.
We requested he step aside from the case, but refuses and wrote a nasty, threating letter to my current attorney.
The question is: Should I pursue having removed from the case or let it go?
Should he have ever taken the case? and What is my liability if I press for his removal and lose? What if I win?
