I hired an attorney 2 1/2yrs ago for a simple breach of contract. opposition kept throwing delays - had a court date - that was canceled without my attny telling me. He refuses to return my (MULTIPLE) calls and honestly hasn't called me in over 6 months How do I fire him when I can't even speak with him. By the way his office manager is not allowed to schedule appointments for him and though I did just go sit and wait til he showed up this spring, I don't want to have to do that again. Can I hire another attorney to take over while he is still technically my representative?
Thank you for your question. Be sure to go ahead and bookmark www.nateanswers.com for future questions.All you need to do to replace him is hire someone else. The new attorney will file a Notice of Substitution of Counsel and will send a copy to your present attorney. That will effectively end his representation of you.
