This essentially requires a "trial-within-a-trial" - first the court must look at all the evidence and testimony from your previous case, and come to the conclusion that you should have won, essentially re-trying the case. Then, it must determine that your attorney handled the case incompetently, and that incompetence caused you to lose.
