Thanks wolfin,
I had to take a pill, something I don't want to do, took myself off of them because I don't like the side effects.

I am at a loss. I am feeling like a failure too. I just wish I had an attorney that could tell me what I should do. I did call around last year and every attorney I spoke to knew him and told me to be patient and stay on top of him. Well, that has proven to be very difficult and I tried to do that again today and he got angry with me as mentioned above. Like I said, I don't call and pester him all the time. I have not talked to him for a month now since he met with us to discuss the demand. Why is it such a big deal for him to show me what he intends on presenting as a demand?

Am I unreasonable and "needling him"? If he is representing me, why can't I be allowed to review what he is going to present to the opposing side?

And then he asked me how I found him as an attorney. He knows that we found him because he knew my husband for several years at my husband's second job as a bartender. Can't he even remember that? He remembered that at the last deposition. Is he going senil?

I looked up the process of firing and hiring a new attorney. And in my case a new attorney would probably not want to take my case considering the amount of time my attorney has been involved in my case. And even if I did find a new attorney then a new attorney would still have to give my present attorney the agreed 1/3 of whatever is recovered and that means even more of whatever is recovered would have to be shared with yet a new attorney. I honestly feel like I am being pulled apart even more and ground down to never being able to recover what was so unfairly destroyed by my neighbors clear negligence.

I don't know what I expect anyone to say, what can anyone say to this. I am someone that usually has a lot to say about different issues, but with this, I am stumped. I hate PTSD.
