Re: quit
Continue representation with firm (is this the entity listed on your fee agreement)
Follow attorney to his new office
Find a new attorney to take over matter.
Good luck to you.
Re: quit
You can stay with the attorney who left or you can stay with the firm he left (these two options would depend on the terms of the fee and retainer agreement). Also you can hire another attorney not affiliated with this firm. Best of Luck
Re: quit
You have no obligation to remain with a firm. Rather, it is the attorney who represented you, not the firm. Having said that, if you are concerned about any retainer that you paid being credited, the firm likely received the retainer and must either continue to supply services or refund the difference.
I trust this has been helpful but feel free to call or e-mail on a free initial basis.
