You may terminate your attorney by simply sending him a letter that states you no longer need his services. You did not indicate the date of the termination hearing, but it would probably be helpful if you had an attorney present during the hearing to assist you in the process and be a witness to the statements made about your work performance and the reasons for termination. You may also consider filing an EEOC complaint based on being fired as a result of your physical disability due to your hip replacement.
