QUESTION
What can we do if we are being billed triple the amount of what our attorney told us?
Asked on Oct 21st, 2013 on DUI/DWI - Oklahoma
More details to this question:
Our attorney told us at the beginning of our case that it would cost $5000.00 and $10,000 if we took it to trial, well it did not go to trial and he is now sending us bills for over $15,000, when he told us that it would cost $5000. What do we do about this? We paid him half of the $5000 and were going to make payments on the rest, but did not after we started getting these outrageous bills.
