What should I do if I feel my case is getting hardly any input from my attorney and it is going on 2 years since my stepfather died. I have to call and email several times to get a response or follow up and 85% of that is excuses of how she meant to get back to me but got busy with CLIENTS. I hired her and I have paid her every nickel charged..does that not make me a CLIENT? My half sister has broken the law and abused her position as personal representative horribly. It has cost me and the other 3 beneficiaries thousands of dollars. I had a heart attack last Feb over the stress of this. I just want to know if I have a solid case against her in court or if I need to just let this go and save my sanity.
Most engagement agreements provide that the client can fire the lawyer at any time for any reason or for no reason. Whether another attorney would represent you depends on that attorney's availability and view of the facts.
