touchy situation with lawyer
I feel as though my lawyer has lost
confidence in my case on the basis of
something she was told by the
defense. Since then (almost two
months ago) she has not called or
emailed me. I keep track daily on the
clerk of courts website ti see if
anything is happening and the
defense has recently requested a
case management hearing. A date
was set and from what I can tell, my
lawyer has responded with an
unavailable response. I realize that
she works for me and I am entitled
to be kept up to date, but do not
want to alienate her at this point. We
are going onto our fourth year in the
suit. I sent her a packet about a
month ago containing additional
research on my medical situation to
re enforce my claim, along with going
through the doctor's deposition and
pointing out the multiple
inconsistencies with his statements
and his actual office notes, hoping to
get her fired up again, yet there has
been no response. I do not want to
start over with another lawyer
(mostly because I believe this would
look bad to my case) but am
beginning to wonder if I should. What
are her legal obligations to me as my
lawyer?
