Answer

If you won the case you would have no injury and not prevail against the attorney in a civil suit unless you argue you could have won more.

YOU DID NOT ANSWER. I WANT TO SUE HIM I COULD HAVE GOTTEN 35,000 DOLLAR IF I WOULD HAVE DONE THE JOB RIGHT BUT I WAS NOT THE ATTORNEY.

Answer

In that case you would need to pursue on theory of malpractice and breach of contract. Consider using a lawyer on contingency fee who handles malpractice claims who can make demand and sue. You can find such counsel in your area to retain on www.martindale.com
