More details to this question:
Our lawyer took the case on a contingency. We won the case and were awarded a judgment. His paralegal left off the debtors names for our sister-state judgments & we have to refile for domestication in the state of CA. Our attorney is now withdrawing from the case. Does this affect our contingency obligation?

It depends on the retainer, but there is no way the NY lawyer would know what you collect in CA.
