I fought my ass off in court, won, and my lawyer didn't bother to process the order.. - GoFuckYourself.com

Wolfy · 02-23-2009, 06:21 PM

I fought my ASS off to get an order to have some cunt pay me some money. Not a lot, but the POINT I was trying to make was much more important.

The judge said I was owed the money within a month, or else spend 30 consecutive days in jail.

I called my attorneys office 3 times over the last month asking why I hadn't got a copy of the order, which was to state that I was paid by February 20th or else. I was assured every time that it should be to me shortly.

I called today to ask what to do since the deadline was up and this piece of shit hadn't paid yet... and the assistant tells me I'm going to have to give the person more time because the judge didn't get the paperwork until TODAY.

WTF?!?!??!!

EVERYTHING I worked my ass off for - primarily, to make a point - was undone by this bullshit incompetency, or whatever the cause was.

What the hell should I do? I'm absolutely LIVID.

Wait another month and never use that lawyer again.

BVF · 02-23-2009, 06:29 PM

I see that you're in Milwaukee...Well Milwaukee courts are ass....I have a pre-trial hearing tomorrow down at the courthouse myself.

Sly · 02-23-2009, 06:30 PM

I don't really see what else you can do aside from not use that lawyer again. Tough break for sure, I hope you didn't need the money urgently for anything.

Spike D · 02-23-2009, 07:39 PM

Your lawyer completely screwed up. I would file a grievance with the Wisconsin state bar. This should get you started.

Sorry to hear that, it sucks.

When dealing with other people, there is a high risk of incompetence.

spunky99 · 02-23-2009, 07:49 PM

definitely not use that lawyer again.. and i'd let him know why as well

pimplink · 02-23-2009, 08:21 PM

these kinda lawyers should be banned permanently

bdld · 02-23-2009, 08:26 PM

file a complaint at the BBB

Most Lawyers are like this you need to double check everything they do.

Oh so true

Phil21 · 02-23-2009, 09:30 PM

If it's truly something you will be upset about tomorrow, file a bar complaint. Don't do it if you ever want to use that lawyer again for anything though

Bar complaints are generally viewed as a "big deal" by most lawyers, so it will definitely get his attention.

Wolfy · 02-23-2009, 09:53 PM

(BVF, I'd meet you for a drink - but I'm afraid I might end up in your van making a vid. Props to ya for what you do, but I can't get down like that LOL!)

Anyway...

I told the assistant that I expected a personal phone call from the attorney, and I expressed how upset I was. I also explained exactly how aware I was of who's fault this is - I'm so fucking pissed when I think about it I can hardly see straight.

I never expected to get the money, I just want to set a god damned precedent. The "cunt" in question is my child's mother, and she gets away with everything... including, now, not following a direct court order with clear cut penalties. So now, due to my lawyer being a fuckoff, she has further proof that she can jerk me around any way she wants and get away with it.

I don't know... the attorney is GOOD in court. I LOVE her in the courtroom - I mean, she got me - a single father - full custody, in the state of Wisconsin. Mom isn't a convicted felon, so that's almost unheard of here. Good dads get fucked all the time here, just because it's Wisconsin.

What will filing a complaint with the BAR do?

ExLust · 02-23-2009, 10:43 PM

That sucks. Find another lawyer.

Doctor Dre · 02-23-2009, 10:49 PM

If she did good for you, you'll probably want to use her again...

Just tell her how you feel, and don't fill a bar complaint.

File a grievance with the BAR immediately.

cgu · 02-24-2009, 12:51 PM

Hire a lawyer who specializes in legal malpractice to file the bar complaint and negotiate for the return of your legal fees.

Or you can just go on with your life and decide that fighting battles just leaves you drained. Why teach someone a lesson when its better to let them go on ripping people off, sooner or later they'll rip off someone who uses their own system of justice. Don't do them any favors!!! Darwinism will take care of them sooner or later for the better.

Take out a full page newspaper ad in your area describing how the only people who win legal cases are lawyers. Might as well get some entertainment value out of your money after all.

What a bummer.

Is her being good in the courtroom of value when she cant sign and deliver a piece of paper to a clerk somewhere?

Thanks, that's what I did. I called today to find out why I hadn't received a personal call from the attorney and I was transferred to the assistant. the assistant informed me that since I don't seem to be happy with their services, they would be requesting to withdraw from the case.

Un-fucking-real.

tell the attorney that you will file if he does not get it settled. He can pay you out, and then take her payment as a pay back.

The Heron · 02-26-2009, 04:54 PM

Hire another lawyer to sue the first! haha i see this becoming a vicious cycle with you as the loser...

Exactly....

I think I said it, but I would have been happy with a simple apology and "we'll make it right".

Whatever, it's done. I'm getting a new attorney, moving on, and I hope the complaint at least causes the piece of shit attorney a little headache. Fucking vultures.
