I deposited the Notice of Withdrawal of Attorney of Record in the United States mail, in a sealed envelope with postage fully prepaid. TO (name and address of client): 1.Ask the client to sign a substitution of attorney form to voluntarily relieve you. In the disengagement letter, the lawyer should warn the client of applicable time limitations, deadlines, and uncompleted investigation or casework. In accordance with Local Rule. You may contact staff to request a link to complete the form via DocuSign. The Alameda County Lawyer Referral Service can match you with a pre-screened Alameda County attorney qualified to help you with your legal issues. An end of representation letter serves as a professional and ethical marker to indicate the end of a specific attorney-client relationship. The lawyer must ask the court for permission to withdraw as your attorney. This does not happen automatically.
