Help with malpractice attorney?

I am going to get to the points that’s all everyone. If you want to read my story referring to the following questions please read my previous questions on my profile. Please help if you know. Thanks!
I notified my now former attorney on July 20 at 12:00 pm. He then at 3:00 pm the same day I fired him, he faxed me with copy of payments (checks written on June 20, 2007 to go to the bills of providers) without my knowledge and permission plus he was fired by me. Addition to that, he did not show prove of bill statements from providers (he had 4 whole months since the car accident car was settled or close to take care of the bills but did not)
1. Does he have the right to do this on the day I fired him?
Why all sudden he takes care of the bills at very same day I fired him?
2. Will he be reliable for paying the bills from my client’s trust account without my permission on same day I fired him?
3. What step should I take to recover this demage (it’s $2,000 that he sent out)?

Try your state or local lawyer’s oversight entity. In Minnesota, we have the Lawyer’s Board of Professional Responsibility, and it is responsible for licensing and supervising attorneys. Find your area’s equivalent and start there. You may also wish to hire your own attorney to protect your legal interests.

I hope this helps, good luck to you.
