Takes your money and runs

I contracted this attorney for two speeding tickets. He actually showed up for one of them, but did no more than what I could have done. However, he was a no show for the second and I didn't find out until I was stopped by City of Fort Worth not because I did anything wrong, but because I was fill...ing up with gas and they pulled in the parking log and their "360 Plate Scan" showed that I had warrants associated with my license plate. Thankfully they were kind enough to not take me to jail, tow my car and send my dog to animal control. I contacted him and he responded right back and said that he would look into it. That's been almost two months ago and I guess he's still looking into it and lost his phone while he was looking. I'm currently unemployed and finding a job has been a challenge, especially since I didn't know that I had warrants out for my arrest. Therefore, I don't have the money to pay the full fine with additional the warrant charges because I have no job and I can't get a job, because I have outstanding warrants that pop up on a background check. My last resort to clear the warrants so that I can get a job is to sit the tickets out in JAIL!!! Even after making him aware of that I am going to sit these tickets out in jail, STILL no response from my boy Richie.
