Not Happy With Your Present Attorney? Don’t Worry, Be Happy!

By lsaftler on May 13, 2010

You should be happy and confident with whomever you choose to represent you. Communication with your attorney is one of the most important aspects of representation. Hopefully, your trust in your attorney’s opinion will allow your attorney to help guide you with important decisions throughout any litigation or legal matter. We, at The Saftler Law Firm,  have taken over many cases from other attorneys where the client becomes unhappy with their prior attorney  for their simple failure to respond to their phone calls. Making an appointment to see your attorney so that you can be updated with what’s going on should be routine.  Our office prides itself on responding to all calls within 24 hours and seeing clients as, if and when called upon. We never shy away at giving answers on what is the present status of a case.

Whatever the reason for your unhappiness with your present attorney, you have a right to choose new counsel at anytime without consequence to you or your case. In a personal injury matter, your agreement on fees remains the same and the outgoing attorney obtains an attorney’s lien for the share of work he did on your file. What’s most important is that you have the attorney you want working for you with the confidence and competence you want working for you as well. The contingency fee arrangement remains the same and your interests are otherwise protected by your new attorney.

 At the Saftler Law Firm, we are prepared to answer any questions or issues you have relating to your matter, whether new or not. While we prefer to take a matter from it’s inception, we examine each case based on it’s individual merits and decide accordingly. While we can’t take them all, we do want to make you happy if we do take your case.
