More details to this question:
I paid the lawyer's retainer. I was arrested a few hours later. The police talked to the lawyer on the phone as they were arresting me. The lawyer did not show for interrogation. The state bar is investigation. Can I get a refund?

My response is a question: "What was the attorney hired to represent you for?" The reason I answer it this way is that it depends on what the retainer agreement states as to the responsibilities of the attorney-client relationship.
