Legal Question in Personal Injury in Wisconsin

You have a right to change attorneys at any time. I am assuming that your current attorneys filed a lawsuit on your behalf already in this case, given the fact that three years have passed already. Assuming a lawsuit was filed, your new attorneys will need to arrange with your current attorneys to sign a Stipulation agreeing that your new attorneys can be substituted for your current attorneys, and the Court will have to sign an Order to that affect. Understand, that if you signed a Retainer Agreement with your current attorneys, probably on a contingency fee basis, that your changing attorneys, unless for cause, will result in your current attorneys being able to maintain a lien and assert a claim for attorney fees and costs from your eventual settlement or verdict. That is an issue to discuss with any new attorneys who you may retain in your case.
