Immediately make a complaint to the Bar Council. Bar Council will definitely take action against the Advocates concerned.
Now, you have to appoint a new Advocate to handle your matter.

you can make the complaint to the local bar association in this regard also and hire a new hardworking advocate on your own behalf and file the case in the court and MACT cases does not have any limitation and no need to give the advance money except for the expenses and make the dealing on the basis of the percentage of the compensation.
