As I wrote about here: http://www.socialsecurityinsider.com/2008/05/could-you-pick-your-attorney-out-of-a-line-up/ lawyers should work for their money. And most of them do. Sadly, it seems that bigger firm you go with, the more likely it is that you will be ignored.  Sorry about the bad experience with your lawyer.
