Legal Question in DUI Law in California

attorney fee refund?

i got a DUI in nov. of 2007. my criminal case was dismissed but i never went to the dmv hearing. so i hired a lawyer to appeal the dmv case, but my appeal was denied. when i hired them, we had a verbal agreement for a $1500 flat fee. is it possible to get some kind of refund?
