My personal injury lawyer won't be straight with me on fees. What can I do?
I was injured in a car accident last year. I hired a lawyer and asked him repeated direct questions that he always answered indirectly. So I got mad at him and told him I was fed up with his indirect answers, especially concerning fees. He told me that I could now find a new lawyer. I'm confused. What should I do?

pro per
A term derived from the Latin in propria, meaning "for one's self," used in some states to describe a person who handles her own case without a lawyer. In other states, the term pro se is used. When a nonlawyer files his own legal papers, he is expected to write "in pro per" at the bottom of the heading on the first page.
