Incompetent lawyer

Apparently, I have to put a star when this lawyer does not deserve one. There should be a place for negative stars. 1. He never ever returns his clients phone calls. 2. He made us believe that he was working on the case and proved to be working for the opposing counsel. Very unprofessional and un...ethical. 3. He made promises to help us with a violent situation in which he made worse. He said that he had everything under control and he clearly failed to keep us in the loop and to effectively work for us. He failed to keep any of his promises to our children and to us. 4. We live at least 12 hours one-way away from Clarksville, TN and we had to drive down to Clarksville, TN to do his job. We drove to the businesses to get the documentation that was very important to our case, because he refused to do anything in the case. 5. He held a non-legal mock deposition and during that recording he berated me with the opposing counsel and side. According to the personal recording he did, it sounded like a three circus on the recording. He told us to stay away and not to come back to Tennessee for the recording and for the court hearing. 6. He refused to call me with his findings after he recorded the questions. He delayed getting me the time sensitive information until after the court hearing because he knew that I would not approve of the line of questioning. He never asked my questions. The way he asked his questions it sounded like he was interviewing the opposing side for a job interview. He clearly stated on the recording that he had a lot of problems with his family during the time his grandfather passed away. He allowed his personal experiences to effect his judgment in my case. That in our opinion is very unethical and unprofessional. 7. After he took our money, he then refused to help us. In our opinion, he defrauded us out of our money and time and our case by misrepresenting us and misrepresenting himself to us. 8. He mails all of the time sensitive documents in the slowest way possible. It took me 2 weeks to get the time sensitive documents he mailed. He always told me to overnight my information while he used the slowest form of mail. 9. We lost our case on these grounds: 1. He told us that he did not want us to come Clarksville, TN to appear in court. He said that he had everything under control. 2. He went to a judge and had himself removed from the case 5 days prior to the court date. 3. The judge sided with the opposing counsel because we were not there to state our objections. 4. Now our family is made to endure the violent abuse that the opposing side dishes out at us. They are still stealing from us. We are at a loss as to what our next course of action should be.
