The answer depends on the Contract you signed with the law office. If they have not performed any service and the service is no longer necessary, you should receive a refund of the $2500. If the attorney noted their representation in court and it is a criminal case, they are still obligated to continue representation unless the court allows them to withdraw as counsel.
