My brother was on trial for accidentall shooting his wife. The Da chose to tear down my brothers character beginning with his ex claiming he was a drunk and always threatening her with guns. My brothers lawyer called no character witnesses to defend my brother. The lawyer would not call my brothers daughter to the stand to testify even after he asked him to. After the Da rested his case, my brothers lawyer called no one absolutely no one.
He told my brother on WedNesday to go get a blood test. anyone knows you don't just walk in somewhere and ask for a blood test. mY BROTHER HAD ALREADY PAID THIS LAWYER $5,000.00 AND HE WANTS ANOTHER $5,000 FOR DOING NOTHING. He was not prepared at all to defend my brother, now my brother is incarcerated and losing his VA benefits along with his Social Security. He could have suponedd witnesses who worked with my brother before he retired. He could have suponed witnesses who worked with his ex as to her attitude and character. But he did nothing. What can I do to right this wrong done by an ineffective lawyer?
thank you
