Dear sir, as per your query you are tnreatened by an Advocate for more fee, and he has returned your documents, you can give return reply to Advocate saying that no due from your side and asking your documents back, then you can approach proper authority.

You can an hire an another lawyer and get the required documents from the court. The lawyers fees would depend on the works they have done. If you really feel that the lawyer has charged you the high fees, you can hire another lawwyer and get your work done.

Hi, It need clear discussion about the interaction you had with your lawyer. I need to understand which kind of documents you gave to your lawyer. You may approach another lawyer, In case, if you need the document to be released from court ( if the documents are with court ).
