        My grandfather (age 90 years) case of criminal appeal was listed in Lucknow high court. A advocate took 50k for fighting it entirely.
        Case was listed only once since then ( that also resulted in Passover).my grandfather expired today and I asked my money back but he denied to return a single penny. What should I do in this case. Atleast half of the amount should be returned by him.

          He charged for the service, and you paid for it. He is willing to provide the service, but you are unable to use it.He is not obligated to return the money; if he does, he is a good man; if he does not, that is normal.

            so 50k was for whole case and you paid all money upfront? what were you thinking bro? even heard of partial payments?

            you learned a expensive lesson, try not to repeat the same mistake.
