What Can You Do If You Are Not Happy With Your Lawyer

Do you find yourself in this situation?  You have hired a lawyer to represent you in your work injury claim but you have grown frustrated with the lawyer and feel that he or she is not doing the best job possible for you.  There are various reasons why people become disenchanted with their lawyer.  Quite often it is because the lawyer does not return calls and does not keep the client abreast of what is going in his or her case.  The workers’ compensation system is complicated and confusing for the injured worker.  You hire a lawyer so that you will know your rights at each step of the way during your claim. Part of the service the lawyer is providing is advising the client about the process.   If your lawyer will not speak with you and advise you of your rights and address your concerns then you are not getting the best representation.
