$10,000 to recover $20,000? Is this Legal?

[CRM001]

I am in the middle of a litigation for breach of contract which does not include atty's fees. As per my lawyer, "no way" I'm getting anything back. So here are my questions:

Is this true? Is there a way to recover the $10k (so far) spent on my case? Even after this case is over?

I am being told there is not and that mine is a "court annexed arbitration", no judge involved, is this also true? If it is as I understand, it is just arbitration. Why does it take so much to get there?

Why do I have to go through with a lawyer which is obviously interested in getting more of my money? What does it take to go per se? would it require a lot of time?

Which other options do I have if I start to feel my lawyer is not necessarily on my side? I mean, is there a regulatory agency (the state bar?) which could keep these people in line.

Are there any lawyers with a sense of humanity? (rhetorical question, no need to answer)...

Any help, support, I would appreciate. Rgds,

You've asked this question twice before...

and

Perhaps if you sat down with your attorney to get an explanation for why it's taking so long and costing you so much in attorney fees, you might have the answer you're looking for...

After reading the first quoted sentence, I know I'm ready to run through fire to help you.

THanks for replies

Hey Sandi!
I noticed you were kind enough to seriously answered before and now to my post. I am frustrated and may have repeated some but not all the questions are the same. Can you answer as much as you can? I know you're in SouthernCal and my case is in Oregon, so I am not sure how much you know about laws over there, but I would appreciate your help again.

Rgds,
CM

As far as LeeHarvey's replay goes...Thanks for your sarcasm. You don't need to run anywere through fire plus I am not sure about my "FIRST" quoted sentence. I believe you referred to the Last one which in fact....it is not quoted. ha,ha,ha!!
