PFA litigation

The office has poor means of communication, and his ability to be respondent to opposing council is not even sub-par, showed up unprepared, trying to obtain facts 15 minutes prior to trial, deferred any meeting with which were cancelled, when attempting to litigate , projected images onto live feed o...f his personal family and some sort of bizarre masquerade costume, this had truly put myself and case in question and he was not taken seriously from that point, I have every item mentioned documented and able to prove from his email
