Child agreement/support

I hired Mr. Harp to defend me in my case for child support and agreement between myself and my sons father. I had heard good reviews from people I personally know, and online. I lived about an hour away so it was really a leap for me. The first two months he did "okay"... We went to two court hearing...s, both he didn't say much at. After that it went downhill fast. I came to his office for an appt and there was already somebody there so he quickly talked to me outside for a few minutes and sent me on my way. After that I didn't hear from him for two months. My boss ended up looking online to see if he was possibly in a court case himself, and he was. I called the attorney representing him and they told him to give me a call. He scheduled an appointment for me to come in (now I live almost two hours away). I went to his office to find that he AGAIN wasn't going to let me come inside, we were going to sit on the porch (in 95 degree weather) and talk about HIS problems. I heard all about his divorce, the people that had been using spyware to break into his computers and so forth. First of all, if somebody is breaking into his computers, shouldn't I have been made aware considering MY personal information is in there? But second of all, I drove two hours to sit on his porch and listen to him vent. He then proceeds to ask if his girlfriend could come outside... what am I going to say, no? So she came outside, I tried to tell him what had been going on and he cut me off and told me he would be in touch with me, to just email him my financial paperwork. TWO HOUR DRIVE to hear about his problems!! About a week later his sister emails me asking if I could make it to court the next day for a hearing. I was given a days notice for this hearing. I couldn't make it, so he was going to be there for me. Me ex and I are civil for the most part, so when the hearing was done he called me and let me know what happened. He informed me that Mr. Harp came in late and sweaty. Not very professional to me. It has been three weeks since this hearing, and I haven't been able to get ahold of Mr. Harp. Not only am I very disappointed, but I am upset with myself because I wasted a lot of money. I would not recommend anyone hiring him.
