More details to this question:
Over a year ago, I hired a lawyer to help me with a slip and fall claim against an apartment building's insurance company. He decided to quit, and I was wondering if I am able to obtain my case file from the lawyer, and where I go to file a small claims case against the insurance company.

Yes - You are entitled to get your file back from your attorney. See generally http://www.padisciplinaryboard.org/documents/PBAFO2007-100-CLIENT-FILES.pdf
I would request the file from the attorney. He/She should provide it within a reasonable time period. If not, you can file a grievance with the PA disciplinary board.
