No, you should have to start all over again. A new attorney should be able to pick-up where the last attorney left off on the case. Sometimes, a new set of eyes is better anyhow. I would just make certain that your former attorney provide your new attorney with a copy of the complete file. Good luck! If you have any questions, please contact me directly at [email protected]

You need a new attorney, but you do not need to redo anything that has already occured. What has already been finished?
