QUESTION
Can I sue for the return of my attorney fees?

More details to this question:
My son's father obtained counsel to try to lower his child support as well as a few other things. We went back and forth to try to agree on several issues such as college, car, insurance, etc. (We were never married so this was never dealt with). After about 10 months my lawyer told me that they dropped the entire case. I am now out $4000 for something that he opened. Can I sue him for my attorney fees?

in america, each party pays for their own attorney. you would have a chance for reimbursement if the person abused the process: no basis for the claim; repeated failure to appear, etc. ed dimon, esq.
