Firing your current lawyer and going through
this whole process again will cost you a lot of time
and effort. Be prepared to make this sacrifice should
you choose to let them go.
Secondly, make sure that you have
upheld your end of
the bargain. Have you communicated effectively? Have
you stated your displeasure with their work
repeatedly? All attorneys work differently, so make
sure your judgment of their work as poor is not a
misconception on your part.
Thirdly, read (and reread) any service agreements or
fee agreements you signed with this lawyer. What is
their policy when it comes to dismissing them? Is
there a penalty fee? Are you required to pay a certain
amount on work that was to be completed? Make sure you
are absolutely clear as to what the financial costs
are of cutting them from your team. Financial
surprises that cost you are never good surprises.
It's always good to be well informed so make sure
that you read all documentation that pertains to
the relationship of you and your business with your
attorney before firing them.

If you have to let your attorney go, make sure that's

make the break.
You don't have time or money to waste on someone
who doesn't do the job the way you need it done.
