Hi , Advanced thanks for any legal expert who answers my query. I am lower middle class guy who completed my schooling with free school seat on humanitarian grounds as I was from poor background and my mom was heart patient.After completion got into diploma in govt college with merit.Completed diploma as topper and was campus picked for a Chemical Firm.I had a bond for 3 years and company was in Mangalore.Due my mother illness and other reason I had break bond.After nearly 1.5 years company sends a legal notice.I had to seek legal aide so I contacted an legal expert in Mangalore.Ay first my lawyer seeing my pathetic situation said he will not charge any fee and will take only paper work charges. He now took over 10K and still says the case is going on and on.but he doesn't reveal the progress and status of case.Just to add-on the company was taken over and heard that all there legal battle on employees they took back. So please help me how can I know my case status and future action that I need to take
