Then two weeks ago I found out my attorney has done nothing to find an expert witness, and I'm running out of time (June 16th). Sorry to introduce myself this way, but if anyone can help me, I would be so grateful. I've been lucky enough to find a great team of doctors, it took awhile, but that has helped so much. I have read many stories and I'm grateful to have found a site where I can talk to real people who are going through the same thing I am, it's hard for my friends and family to understand, as you all know. Again if anyone has advice for me, thank you.

It seems to me that you've got to move quickly.
What I mean is, You've got to educate yourself on your next step.
While your current attorney may not be working to your best interests, he is liable so long as he has a contract with you. (Which unfortunately, doesn't mean a lot, because SO MANY attorneys practice without "Legal Malpractice Insurance".
The expert witness, imho, would be your treating doctor, the better s/he is, the better!
A good lawyer would make sure of that.
You need an attorney and doctor, who KNOW RSD!
Why don't you PM Me?
I think I can help you.
Or, at least, I'll try my best.
I've been there.
I know how badly it feels...
