It happens every day. Clients going through a divorce, or any family law matter, change lawyers during their case. It’s simply a fact of life. Sometimes the lawyer just doesn’t get the intricacies of divorce court or, perhaps, the client and the lawyer just don’t get along.
Regardless of the reason, if you are not happy with your current lawyer or if your lawyer is not getting you the results you want (or not even trying), you should hire a new one. Many people feel the Judge will look at them negatively if they switch lawyers. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Judge’s understand that sometimes the client-lawyer relationship just didn’t work and that you, as a client, have an absolute right to have the lawyer of your choice represent you. Staying with a lawyer who you’re not comfortable with or who you feel isn’t representing your best interests, can be a huge mistake. If you don’t change your lawyer and you are not happy with the outcome of your case, you will regret it down the line. You only get one “bite at the apple,” so make sure you’re satisfied with your lawyer.
At Taradash Given, P.C., when you hire us to begin representing you, we can take over your case and you won’t miss a beat. It won’t cost you anything for us to take over your case and start representing you, regardless of how far along your case is. We’ve had people hire us just weeks before their case was set for trial because they weren’t happy with the lawyer representing them. And we don’t charge you for any of the work needed to get up to speed with your case. We file our Appearance with the court on your behalf, contact your former lawyer, get your file from him and immediately start working on your file – all at no charge to you. You don’t even have to deal with the uncomfortable position of firing your lawyer. We handle the process of notifying your lawyer that you are changing lawyers and we prepare the necessary forms to change attorneys. We can even review your final bill with your former lawyer to make sure that you weren’t over charged. We will then sit down with you and map out a strategy that is sound, strong, and in your best interests. We will explain to you the strengths and weaknesses of your case as well as the strength and weaknesses of your spouse’s case. This will give you a firm understanding of the strategy to be used and how your case should proceed. Again, we do all of the leg work to get your file from your former lawyer and it doesn’t cost you one penny. There is nothing to lose and everything to gain.
So, if you’re not happy with your current attorney, contact Taradash Given, P.C. and hire a lawyer you’re comfortable with and that can get the job done. It’s quick. It’s easy. And it’s a no brainer.
