In general, it’s much easier for you to fire your attorney than for your attorney to drop you as a client. But an attorney can withdraw if it won’t have a large, negative impact on you, the client, or if the attorney has a compelling reason.
The sensitive information you share also makes it tough to replace your lawyer if they quit. However, while it’s often ideal to have the same attorney represent you from the beginning to the end of litigation and appeals, it’s not always possible or even smart.
