Five Signs It May Be Time To Fire Your Doctor Or Lawyer
Category: Why Didn't I Think Of That?
There it was. A perfect list of the signs that it may be time to leave your doctor. By substituting lawyer for doctor it was also a nearly perfect list of signs it may be time to move on to other legal representation.
Know when it's time to fire your doctor
Here are five ways to know when it's time to think about leaving your doctor...1. When your doctor [lawyer] doesn't like it when you ask questions
2. When your doctor [lawyer] doesn't listen to you
3. If your doctor [lawyer] can't explain your illness [case] to you in terms you understand
4. If you feel bad when you leave your doctor's [lawyer's] office
5. If you feel your doctor [lawyer] just doesn't like you -- or if you don't like him or her

I have a proviso to Sign No. 5: I have successfully represented clients who are simply not likeable. In fact, I have informed some of them that even I, their advocate, find them to be annoying, whining, unpleasant...you get the idea. I have told them to disabuse themselves of the notion that jurors will likely develop a warm and fuzzy feeling about them despite our creative efforts at trial. Not one of the unlikeables has ever terminated our attorney-client relationship. In fact, in most instances, I believe the relationship was improved by putting the matter on the table.
