I am very limited in what I can say here, an Attorney owes an absolute duty of loyalty to the client's interest. It follows that any disparaging comments about you would be a disturbing violation of that duty and the trust you put in the attorney. You have 2 issues, did you lose the defamation case by legal malpractice? And did the attorney's comments reflect a breach of duty to you? Be very careful what you post publicly because, if you post anything disparaging against the prior attorney in a public place, if the attorney sees it, they will file a defamation case against you. You will need to find the right attorney to help on this.
