Did not take my case seriously and wasted my time

I hired this firm to represent me after I was hit from behind while stopped at a red light. The driver who hit me did not attempt to stop and claimed he did not see my taillights, or the taillights of the several cars in front of me, or the stoplight. He was OBVIOUSLY at fault. My attorney never responded to my calls or e-mails, he downplayed my injuries, which were severe enough that I had to change jobs and reduce my working hours to part time, with no potential for physical improvement at this point. I've lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in past and future wages, I have thousands of dollars in medical claims, and he berated me and put me down for not settling for 90K. He yelled at me that I was foolish for rejecting mediation offers that didn't even cover my medical bills. He hired medical experts on my behalf who charged outrageous fees for doing nothing, and then wrote reports that were filled with inaccurate information. They required me to track down medical reports and contact these so-called experts to attempt to correct their inaccurate information, then complained that my case was not strong becasue there were inconsistencies in my medical reports! This is not a good law firm for the average injured person. If your case isn't worth millions, they will ignore you and encourage you to settle for the minimum amount which requires them to put forth minimal effort. When I pushed to refuse the settlement offer, their response was that the opposing insurance company was a tough company and would be hard to face in court. Further, they told me that my pain and suffering, lost wages and medical bills were not factors in how much I could expect to recover.
