Question

My son was arrested for probation violation and is currently incarcerated. He has no bond and was suppose to go to court on Dec 20 and it got postponed till Jan 20. In the same jail guys are getting bonds for the same charge. One offender even got a bond while in jail for manslaughter. My son was arrested because he did not complete community service and they act like he killed someone he is suppose to take medication every day and they wont give it to him and he has lost 30 pounds in a month. I hired an attorney for his case and he has done nothing. My question is, how to I get a bond for him and how do I get my money back from this attorney because he is worthless. I don't have the funds to retain another attorney I gave the attorney the last 700 dollars I had and all he has done is contact the judge about a bond and the judge supposedly wrote back and said no bond but coming from this attorney I don't believe he has done anything



Answer

1. Your son can fire the attorney at any time. He may be eligible then for a public defender, and should ask for one. The PD can then take care of your son's criminal issues.

2. Raise any questions with the attorney in writing. If you are not satisfied, you may report the behavior to the disciplinary commission. Keep in mind that just because you do not personally observe the work does not mean that work is not happening.
