"You're in a divorce matter and suddenly you're not getting along with your attorney. Hi, I'm Robert Todd and I'm here to answer how do I fire my divorce attorney. Well perhaps the easiest solution is when you hire a new attorney have them do it for you. This eliminates the direct contact between you and the lawyer that you were having difficulty with in the first place. And the new lawyer will be charged with making sure that the file is transfered from your former attorney. Now in most instances your new attorney will have to file something called a joint stipulation for substitution of council and you will likewise be required to sign this. What this does is authorizes the court to allow your first attorney to withdraw from the case and allow the orderly transference of your file to the new attorney. I'm Robert Todd and thank you for watching."
