A recording won't do much good unless your lawyer was an idiot. Everything a lawyer does creates a record. Thus, you can use that record (or the lack thereof) to prove negligence.
Of course, even if you can prove that a lawyer was negligent, you still have to prove damages. For example, if your lawyer was negligent for failing to depose a witness, but in the end you would have lost anyway, then you would not win in a malpractice suit.

A lawyer a friend has, made statements to him that were untrue and affected the turn out of the case. Now he is saying he never said those things and of course no one else heard it. When the person went to jail after the attorney had him pay $10,000 more as a good faith payment and stating he had worked everything out with the prosecutor and the judge that he wouldn't be going to jail, he took the money and ran and the person is sitting in jail. He also stated when the sentence was handed down that he could appeal it in 6 months when it turned out he had to appeal it within 45 days. There are a few other things he said that were not true but we have no way of proving he said them.
