When Should I Change Attorneys?

You have the right to terminate an attorney’s representation for any reason, and at any time. Even if you signed a contract with that attorney, you retain the right to terminate him or her. But is it the right choice? Here are the most common reasons we hear for potentially terminating an attorney:

How long does it take for an attorney to return a call?

Have you given the attorney at least two days to return the call? Remember that attorneys are sometimes in trial for days at a time. Sometimes they have to fly out of town for depositions. Sometimes, their kids are just sick and they have to take a day off. If the attorney-client relationship is new, these factors might excuse a delay of two days or less and the attorney might be given another chance. (Lawrence & Associates has an office policy to return calls within 24 hours, not including weekends.)

What happens if an attorney is indicted for ethical infractions?

Some ethical infractions result in the loss of a law license too. If your attorney is facing a criminal indictment or ethical hearing, they have other things on their mind and you may want to begin looking for new counsel immediately.

What does it mean when an attorney asks for medical records?

The attorney is asking the client to get his or her own medical records after the contract is signed, or is asking the client to pay the costs of a medical opinion out of pocket: If your attorney asks you to do either of these things, just find a new attorney immediately.

What is the role of paralegals in law?

Paralegals are to a law office what nurses are to a doctor’s office, and one of their functions is communication with clients on a day-to-day basis while attorneys are in court, in depositions, or inspecting accident scenes.

Why was Attorney A fired?

For example, let’s say Attorney A is fired by his client because he was moving too slowly for the client’s taste, or lost some paperwork the client sent in. This could be shoddy work, but it doesn’t rise to the level of misconduct. The client then goes to Attorney B, who successfully resolves the case.

What does a good attorney know?

A good attorney not only knows the law, but also knows how to explain it to non-lawyers. We are supposed to be “counselors of the law” after all. Lawrence & Associates practices in only four areas of the law – personal injury, bankruptcy, workers’ compensation, and social security – because that is what we know. We won’t take a criminal or family law claim, because that’s not where our expertise lies. Other firms are not as disciplined, and can’t turn away a good case even if they don’t know how to do it. If your attorney can’t answer your questions, or the answers don’t make any sense, it may be time to get a second opinion.

5 Mistakes to Avoid When Changing Lawyers

If you’re unhappy with your attorney, first ask yourself if your expectations are realistic. If you aren’t sure, ask. When you’ve decided you want a different attorney to handle your injury case, take your time and avoid costly mistakes.

Splitting Attorney Fees and Legal Costs

The fact that your previous attorney may be entitled to a portion of the contingency fee when your new attorney recovers your compensation doesn’t mean you’ll be losing money.

Changing Attorneys Before vs After Filing a Lawsuit

Changing attorneys before your case is filed is much easier than changing after the lawsuit is underway. If you already know you want a new lawyer, write your current lawyer a letter explaining that you no longer need their services. You don’t have to provide a specific explanation, but can if you want to.
