I was arrested for DUI March 2011 and my attorney appeared in court and then transferred my case from city to county court. Since then, absolutely nothing has happened. I contacted him on Monday, 6/17/13, concerning needing to get my license back (haven't had one since the arrest) and he told me to pull my MVR report and we would go from there. I googled his law firm to get his address to mail him the report and found the article that he had been disbarred in August 2012 for insurance fraud - by a guilty verdict. He's also on probation. He never told me or notified me about this. Help - what do I do?
Unfortunately, you will need to hire a new attorney. Perhaps the new attorney can work with you on a modified payment plan.
