If so I would go to his office. If part of a firm, would also go to the office and either see him or the administrator of the firm.

Assuming you are calling or corresponding via email.
Does anyone answer the phone when you call? If so I would insist on speaking to him.

If none of these actions are feasible, then I would write him a registered letter giving him 3 days to respond to you, if he doesn’t, you will report him to the state Bar and demand a refund of any fees you already paid.

Goodluck!
