UAsking again because didn’t get any tangible solutions.
We filed a quashing petition in Delhi HC. The petition was allowed. Lawyers had discussed amounts with us, which very extremely steep and they had promised it would be over a couple months. The entire episode took a year and we paid the lawyers beyond what was asked through the process.
Now the lawyers are emailing me invoices which are double the actual discussed amount with very questionable entries and ridiculous pricing and are being very persistent. I’m not in a position to pay.
Questions:– Is it ethical for them to do this?
– What should I do?
– If I politely deny their requests, will I be looking at legal consequences?Honestly, I’m feeling very cheated as the people who were brought in to help me are trying to take undue advantage of my situation.

MYou can deny in paying the bills. Change the lawyer. Also don’t worry, You wont be looking at any legal consequences from them.

UThanks for your advice!
The matter is already concluded, so I don’t need any other lawyer. Should I be taking any steps to safeguard myself, for example, send them a formal email denying the payments or should I just ignore their advances?-
MSend them an email setting out all the facts in detail. That for this case you quoted x amount which you agreed and paid in full. Thereafter you had raised additional invoices in furtherance of the x amount which was also paid. However you are not bound to raise new invoices which was never agreed between us.
