You may have a case against the lawyer, based on his actions. Has any lawsuit been filed on his claim?

Have you requested verification?

Call or email for assistance.

Just to add to the previous answer, If you've been served a summons to appear for court for this, make sure to go to court and contest it.

Sounds like a case of mistaken identity. I would recommend that you hire your own lawyer to straighten this matter out. If the lawyer refuses to exonerate you, you may need to file an ethic's complaint with the Minnesota Lawyers Professional Responsibility Board. Let me know if you need help.

Call either Peter Barry or Thomas Lyons. If you give them my name they will charge you no more than the regular price.
