Before you start paying a dime, Try calling your Chamber of Commerce and your Sates Attorney, they may be able to ge tthe ball rolling for you before you spend money. I would also write letters to the editor, mostly in the area of the manufacturer and cause a Beehive of a comotion, No Manufacturer likes Bad P.R. It may sound stupid, I did it and it worked for me, may have not been the exact same circumstances but it worked.
Lawyers for the most part are detail orieneated and they are more so when it comes to billing you. I sued a lwyer here and it was because his bill was very vague, he had told me that the fist conselation was FREE and after that $85 per hour. Even if he wasn't in and I only talked to his Secretary, I was billed the $85 per hour. So when I ggot his bill pff to court we went and I told the Judge, I wanted Notes form the 11 hours of work he claimed o have performed, I wanted to benifit from this and not just pay for him to get educated and I wanted PROOF that he was working ONLY on my case and no one elses during those hours I was being billed. I wanted to be sure he was charging mre than once for the same hours.
The Judge laughed but reduced the amount I owed the lawyer by over 2/3's I had gone to the Board of Lawyer Fee Disputes. I guess not all lawyers are loved by their peers.
It was Sooooo Cold here yesterday, I actually saw a lawyer walking with his hands in his own pockets.
