Suing for Attorney's lack of good faith effort

If an attorney is not making a good faith effort on the part of his/her client, what recourse does the client have beyond terminating the attorney/client relationship? Are there damages to be collected?

Based on what you have written, if your not satisfied, then you whould contact your attorney and explain the circumstances and your dissatisfaction. Other alternatives might include things such as firing your attorney to retaining another law firm to assist you with the settlement. If my law firm can assist you with this legal issue or any other legal matter, please contact my legal assistant Jennifer ([email protected]).

If you don't like the effort of your attorney, let him or her know. If he doesn't improve his effort, get a new attorney. That new attorney can advise you whether you suffered any real damages.
