Go to the state or provincial board that governs lawyers, or hire another lawyer to launch a lawsuit against him. I gave examples below for one state, but you shold be able to find similar bodies for the state or province in which you reside.

Contact your states board of bar examiners to file a complaint. If you are seeking compensation as a result of damages you may have to hire another lawyer. You are doing the right thing, because by filing a complaint you will prevent others from incurred negligence as a result of practioners such as these.

What happened to me is i took my attorney to the bar and they investigated him and he finally lost his license to pratice law. The bar does not like to hear about attorneys doing wrong or not doing what they are paid to do. So i would put a complaint to the attorney's bar first.

I think you should get another attorney for that, they'll be the best source to help you with the particulars involved in your home state for that. Hurry though, I know that in Tennessee there is a limitation on time for doing this.

If the cause of action you term as "malpractice" rose from the same set of facts on which you based your cause of action for IED, you may not file a separate lawsuit on another cause of action. You must present all your claims arising from the particular course of conduct when you file your first lawsuit. Since the dismissal of the original lawsuit is on appeal, you must wait for the appeals process before doing anything. If the dismissal is upheld and it was with prejudice, you are done. You may not again file suit on the same set of facts. If it was without prejudice, you are free to file again, assuming you are within the statute of limitations on whatever action you intend to file. If the dismissal is not upheld, you can petition the court for permission to amend your suit to include additional causes of action. However, malpractice cannot be one of them.
