get a different lawyer. you’re paying the lawyer to work for you and if he’s not doing that… give him the boot.

Just a typical attorney. Don’t be surprised if you get charged the attorneys hourly rate for talking to his assistant.

Here’s the sentence that stuck out in my mind:
“Basically they offered me less money than my attorney would get in fees and an extended warranty. ”
You said less than my attorney WOULD get….Does that mean you haven’t paid him anything yet? Did he take your case on consignment? If so, especially with this kind of case, your attorney doesn’t stand to make much money from this kind of litigation and thus, his disinterest/apathy about it…
I had a friend who bought a lemon too. The way she took care of it was to write some very unflattering grafitti about the car dealer all over the windows of the car and then she drove it all over town. Very bad publicity. She settled the matter with the car dealer very shortly after that, no attorney necessary!

The fact that the a legal process of this kind takes a lot of patience from both your lawyer and yourself, does not excuse him of not communicating properly with his client. As a lawyer he should know this. If he is too busy to call you back he should not be handling your case. I would recommend shopping around for another lawyer that can provide you the time you deserve. Maybe 50 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean is indeed a good start : )
