Is it possible to get a new hearing or to see a judge if the motion is filed after to time limit?

I hired an attorney to file an appeal on my sons conviction- the motion was to be filed within 30 days.

The attorney accepted the case said he would file the appeal and took my 2500.00. He never filed the appeal, took another 2500.00 and has yet to do anything at all on this case.

Is bad representation grounds to file a motion for appeal even though the 30 days is past?
