On monday Legal Aid had told me they had a lawyer for me for court in seven days and she (Heather) called me at 7:30pm on that monday evening.
Over the course of the following five days I was told that one (Heather), then another (Laurie) and then another (Lisa) different lawyer was going to represent me.
These "lawyers" failed to return calls, emails or answer their phone lines until the following friday during the last business hour, with Lisa.
At about the midde, on wednesday I started looking for help with other attorneys outside of that firm Legal Aid, but was told that they cannot even talk to me until I have fired the existing representation and have the paper that confirms this.
Some of my calls during that week towards the end were of me leaving messages explaining this and that I need to fire them, I got no reply.
Finally, on monday at the courthouse their attorney that "represented" (Lisa) me turned on me and was on the landlords side.
Could I had told her to take a hike? to go away, and say "you are fired"?
