Last week, I paid my lawyer $750.00 which resulted to me paying $4250.00 of my $4500 retainer. My ex filed an emergency motion which I have this Wednesday. My lawyer sent me a bill of $750 which includes the $250 from the retainer. I don't get paid for another two weeks and I told my lawyer that I would pay him then. He stated that if he didn't get the money on Tuesday, he wouldn't represent me on Wednesday and drop my case. Should I show up to court without a lawyer?
