This review does not examine your existing contract, outstanding fees, rights of retention, or specific deadlines. Termination and handover should not be arranged until the actual agreements have been reviewed and the engagement has been accepted.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch during the year?
Generally speaking, yes. The key factors are the contract, termination provisions, outstanding work, fees, powers of attorney, and upcoming deadlines.
Should I quit first or look for a new law firm?
A smooth transition typically begins with a confidential discussion to determine whether the new law firm can take on the case, its scope, and the timeline.
Who requests the documents?
Once the retainer agreement has been accepted and the power of attorney granted, we will agree on which documents you will provide and how coordination between the law firms will be handled.
