Freelance Web Developer causing massive HEADACHE!!

[AMS]

The web developer I hired from a freelancing website is giving me a serious headache and killing my motivation. He is already 6 months behind schedule, and there are more delays every day. I have already paid him 90% of the cost he quoted for my project. I know this was a mistake, but these were the terms his company provided when they bid the project. His company provided the best bang-for-buck (or so I thought). Now, I don't know what to do to get this guy to get on track. He's already told me that my project is "costing him money" and that he "wants to get it done just as bad".

I'm considering just pulling the plug on him and finding someone else to complete the work - but I don't know how that works...how do I obtain the code that he's already completed? I know nothing about web development, hence why I hired this guy.

He keeps saying he's close, and I DO have a link to the website as it is in development, and it's almost there...but there is a punch-list of things that need to get done that he is just dragging his feet on.

Has anyone dealt with this kind of problem before? How did you resolve it? Any opinions on what I should do?

Thanks so much guys/gals!
