Scarce legal action

We understand, for a client who does not have training and knowledge of law school, is quite challenging to understand if their hired malpractice attorneys in Houston is working on the right track. But in such case, we can best suggest investigating properly if you found your attorney is not doing an excellent job on your case.

The other measures you can take are as follow:

Talk with your attorney:

One of the most common experience clients faces with some of the lawyers is that they see them stopped working on their case. Hence, if this ever happens to you, the first and foremost thing you need to do is to reach out to the lawyer and clear out all the things that is there.

Casefile

You can always- always request a case file from your lawyer if you notice he/ she is not working diligently on your case. You can carry it out in two ways:

You can either visit the attorney’s office or just read the file thoroughly there
Or you can even request the attorney to copies of every document and thus make them send to you.

The documents should consist of all correspondence as well as any done filings if any.

But not to ignore, taking the copies from your lawyer becomes all way difficult when you have already fired him/ her. In such case, generally the lawyer becomes unresponsive, but that does not mean that you are not eligible to claim the case file. You still have all the rights to ask for the case file from the lawyer, and he/she is obliged to do so.

Also, if your old lawyer is not co-operating properly and you need the documents immediately, at any of the moment, then in that case, you have all the rights to go to the courthouse to check copies of all documents that have been filed in regard to your case.

In addition to this, if you have hired a new lawyer in between, then you can also request him/ her to collect all the case file documents from the old lawyer. Because of your former attorney if you have, you suffered financial hardship, and then you also hold all rights to ask for money damages.

Get into some legal research

Many clients experience the situation in which his/ her lawyer makes unnecessary arguments or talks that not at all related to your case. If you are in such situation, we advise you to visit your local law library to get some legal research by your own and to find out if the things said by the lawyer are actually making a sense or it’s just all useless.
