but the written agreement was contingent on getting the case dropped/dismissed we discussed this at length. I would not have hired him otherwise. i already had an atty who did nothing.... now here's a second one just as useless.
so question is Small claims as I've just been served papers to...
the retainer basically says: I have to pay him regardless of the outcome of the case.
but this is not what we verbally spoke about or agreed to.
I very specifically told him what I would accept and would not.
he said he would get it dropped. he did not do what he said he would do.
Since...
I hired an atty for a criminal case back in OCT. I already had an atty but he was no help. all he wanted to do was have me cop a plea, I was not willing to do this as i am not guilty
so i went to another atty and explained the case gave him the discovery from old atty and told him the only...
that's funny because the prosecutors in Long Beach CA sure take time to prosecute when a Drug dealing wife beater runs to them crying "harassing phone calls"... phone calls he made to himself thru a computer web site. go figure.

harassing email
I've been there, believe me the police do nothing. My ex b/f also broke into my house. Used my comp. and also used my credit cards to sign up for a spoof tel website. He used this site to call himself via a computer inputing my phone number to make it appear as if I was doing...
disclosure of oposing party's info

Damages
at this point i'm 30k in the hole due to ex-atty's negligence.
right, I got the discovery the prosecutor gave to my former atty. from my atty. which I absolutely should have received, but the point is my atty left some info on these docs which he told me he could go to jail for if he...
why lawyer gave out docs
he gave them to me because I asked for them.
it was my discovery. since he wasn't doing anything to represent me I had to see what the discovery was so i could defend myself. plus i needed to get a new atty and fast. when i went to pick up this "discovery" he was...
lawyer gave out personal info
the lawyer gave out the info because he was negligent, careless etc.
he blacked out most of the docs but left one in tact. this doc contains all personal info mentioned before. plus police reports partially blocked, but still have visible the "victims" drivers...
What are the procedures for reporting an atty who gives out personal information in discovery to the opposing party? these docs include SSN, driver liscense # address and phone #'s. who do I report him to?
