There are three things to think about in this situation. First, go to the attorney and complain and try to work it out. Second is that overbilling is either just a breach of contract for which you can sue. The third is that most states have mechanisms within their attorney ethics offices for resolution of issues like this without resort to a regular lawsuit. In NJ we have what is called the Fee Arbitration process, where a client files a request for arbitration with the Fee Arb section of the Ethics Committee alleging specific instances of overbilling. The attorney files a reply, and the matter is arbitted by a 3 member panel (2 lawyers and 1 non-lawyer) to determine whether there has been overbilling or not.
The opposite of overbilling is underbilling.

To go to arbitration for overbilling, you need to first check if there is an arbitration clause in your contract or agreement. If there is, you should review it to understand the specific process and requirements for arbitration. If there is no arbitration clause, you may need to explore alternative dispute resolution methods or consider legal action in court. It is advisable to consult with a lawyer for guidance and assistance in initiating the arbitration process.

An attorney-in-fact is an agent of the person giving him/her the power of attorney to act on his or her behalf.
Anyone can act as a power of attorney for someone else. You do not have to be an attorney
In the United States, Attorney-at-law means a lawyer. The distinction is made because people can have "power of attorney" or "letter of attorney", which is referred to as Attorney-in-fact.
