Q: What are the first steps in filing a Legal Malpractice suit when a law firm doesn't want to sue another attorney
My 6th and 14th amendments were violated and I was not allowed a preliminary, expulstionary or due process. Lawyers lack of communication, overcharged me and would NOT let me go to trial when I told him several times I wanted one and the prosecutor and my lawyer kept continuing a case w/o new evidence and the State withheld, destroyed evidence my lawyer did nothing and I was forced to take a plea deal the Prosecutor evidence was profiling. My attorney never defended me and prosecutor never granted any of the 13 motions my lawyer filed. He also went to the Mayo Clinic w/o my knowledge they continued a DWI charge for 5 yrs.y attorney made me go threw all the steps that you would have when already convicted
He didn't work to defend me , no communication negligence and I lost everything I also suffer from mental illness knowing I had to go to the Behavioral Hospitals 2x due to suicide attempts from the continuouses and never getting a preliminary hearing or expulstionary or due process.
A: Your first step would be to discuss case with Malpractice attorneys. Please note that there are many requirements and practice cases that will determine whether your case is viable or not.
