RE: Termination of Legal Services Dear Mr. Lawyer, I have decided to terminate our current legal relationship immediately and have accepted legal counsel elsewhere. I am terminating this relationship because I have been calling your office for three months and have received no updates on my case status.

The rule requires that a motion to withdraw be filed and served on the client and other parties of record. The court's approval will not be granted until client and counsel for other parties consent in writing or 14 days pass after service of the motion.

For example, lawyers are required to withdraw when their client demands that they assert a frivolous claim or when the representation will otherwise violate the Rules of Professional Conduct. See Cal. Rules of Prof'l Conduct R. 1.16(a)(1) and 3.1.

(1) An attorney may request withdrawal by filing a motion to withdraw. Unless the court orders otherwise, the motion need be served only on the party represented and the attorneys directly affected. (2) The proof of service need not include the address of the party represented.

City / State / Zip Code Dear Client Name: In ance with Local Rule ______________, this letter shall serve a notice of our intent to withdraw from our representation of you in _______________________ case name, cause number. As you know, we are terminating our representation due to ________________________.

Be Clear: Be direct and get straight to the point. Clearly state that you are terminating the attorney and briefly state the reasons why. Additionally, the termination letter should state that the attorney should immediately stop working on any pending matters.

Client Consent: The simplest way is if you, as the client, agree to the attorney's withdrawal. The attorney should provide you with a request to withdraw in writing, and you can give your consent, also preferably in writing.

If a lawyer and client cannot work together effectively, it can be difficult to achieve a positive outcome. In this case, the lawyer must notify the client of their intention to withdraw and provide reasonable notice to allow the client to find a new lawyer.

Answer: To politely inform a lawyer that their services are no longer required, you can send them a clear and concise email or letter expressing your gratitude for their assistance thus far, but stating that you have decided to go in a different direction or have resolved the matter on your own.

Write a letter saying “I no longer require your services, send me a final bill and my client file.” Write an email saying “I no longer require your services, send me a final bill and my client file.” Have your new attorney do any of the above for you.
