Re: Lawsuit
Your options are pretty limited. Legal malpractice cases require you to present expert testimony from another attorney to prove that your prior attorney made a mistake. If you can't afford an attorney to represent you, chances are that you can't afford the necessary expert either.

Re: Lawsuit
Mr. Starrett is correct.
However, you might call Legal Aid in your community to see if help is available.
