How can I get money back from a lawyer?

Answered by attorney Kenneth G. Wincorn
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Offices of Kenneth G. Wincorn & Associates, P.C.
Check the terms of the contracct you signed. If not earned under the terms of that document he should return a portion of it. Be aware that there is a limit on the time within which you can claim it, the most is four years. You also can complain to the fee disputes committee of the Texas Bar Association. Look it up on the internet. Be sure tht you ask for the refund in writing to the attorney and see what he says. Usually the fee is non-refundable if the attorney does work on the case but there are exceptions.

If a store decides to drop my theft charges will this still show up on my record?

Cynthia Russell Henley

It is not up to the store on whether charges are dropped, although the CEO's request for dismissal would likely carry great weight. If find it very odd to believe that the store would recommed dismissal, though. That is not the norm at all. If it is dismissed, to get the charge off your record you would need to hire a lawyer and file a petition for expunction in civil district court.

Is it normal for a court appointed attorney to keep resetting a court date for 8 months? or should i make a complaint?

John Michael Frick
Answered by attorney John Michael Frick (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Reid Dennis Frick, PC
Your husband should send a letter to his court-appointed attorney instructing her not to agree to any further resets of his probation revocation hearing.If your husband did violate the terms of his probation and the State can prove such a violation by a preponderance of the evidence, your husband will have to serve out his sentence and will not be released from jail until he does.  In some cases, probation violators prefer to serve their sentence jailed in their county jail rather than in a state prison.  So the strategy of resetting the case could be a conscious decision made by your husband in consultation with his attorney in order to remain in the county jail rather than being transferred to a state prison to serve out the remainder of his sentence.  He will receive the same credit toward his sentence in either instance.The only way he will be released to come home and go to work is if he wins his probation revocation hearing, he completes his sentence, or he serves enough of his sentence to be paroled.
