BEWARE: Can't get any worse than this

Hired this "supposed" attorney" May 2013 to file a lawsuit. 7 months later in Dec. 2013 he went to court and the lawsuit was dismissed and he agreed with the other side to take it to arbitration. He has strung me along for 21 months now saying it is in arbitration. Many times I have to email him 3 o...r 4 times and 2 days in a row just to get a ridiculous answer. He has always said he is waiting for the arbitrators to make a final decision. Now for the last 2 months I have sent 9 emails and he has not responded to any of them. He won't even tell me if he is working on my case or not when I write and ask him. I have requested my file from him which I am legally entitled to but he won't respond to that or give it to me. I have made that request in 3 emails and once in the phone to his office. No response. As it turns out after much research on my own I found out he lied. He NEVER did even file the arbitration at all. 2 years and my money is wasted. I have now had to file a complaint with the Attorney Grievance Commission. Nothing but lies and incompetence here. My. mistake was not looking at reviews before hiring him. Now looking at them I see the pattern. I also used him for a probate last year only because he was supposedly handeling this case. Another mistake. In my opinion I was severly overcharged for what turned out to be an informal probate. Something I could have done on my own and he charged several thousand dollars. Take some good advice. RUN.
