    Default Chapter 13 Not Well-Handled

    My question involves bankruptcy in the state of: NYS
    My lawyer has not done a good job with my chapter 13. He filed my case in August 20th, 2008 and I was supposed to send my first payment by September 20th, 2008. However, I never got any info regarding the assigned trustee. I do not know who he is and now I have only 5 days to send the payment and I do not know who to send it to. I can't talk to him because he is never in the office and his paralegal does know anything. I was wondering if I could get my money back from him and hire another attorney. Will that be a problem because my case might be dismissed because I have not made my first payment, not because of me, but because of my irresponsible lawyer.

    Thank you.

    Good heavens!

    Why don't you try to get a couple of consultations tomorrow with some good attorneys? (You have to see them right away!)

    After you get straightened out with the bk mess, you can look into reporting him to the bar.

    Good luck!!
