Re: “'Failure to prosecute'”
I hired Eric for a lawsuit. He forgot to file for court costs in our lawsuit and was reprimanded by the judge in the court room in front of me. He has admitted to me several times he doesn't know how to do something and that is his excuse to not do his job. He drags out every little task for YEARS and when you call and complain the first thing he will ask for is more money. More money? You haven't even done anything! After the case I received a judgment and he promised he would file all the paperwork to collect the money and gave me a quote for "the whole thing". It didn't take long for him to forget his promise and ask for more and more money. Meanwhile, all he was doing was running up the costs and since he never filed for court costs he was the only one getting anything out of it. It took him an ENTIRE YEAR just to figure out how to get the sheriff to serve the judgment. He then told me that there is nothing else we can do when there are proceedings to force a debtor to come to court and explain why they claim they are broke. He told me I didn't know what I was talking about. I then called the clerk of courts and sheriff who both told me my lawyer is a dolt and is supposed to know the next steps. He is a selfish do nothing... RUN
