How Do I Fire My Attorney?
Full Question:
An attorney had me sign a Substitution of Attorney - Civil (without Court Order) form to negotiate with a doctor on some charges. I NO longer want her to represent me on this matter, or any other. What do I need to do to cancel the Substitution of Attorney? Do I need to send another form to her office? If so, what form? Thanks

Answer:
An attorney may be dismissed by the client, in order to hire a new attorney, and the client may request delivery of the non-privileged file documents. A motion for withdrawal is filed in court by the attorney and then a later hired attorney files an appearance or substitution of attorney notice.
