Subject: Termination of Representation — Important Notice from [Law Firm Name] Dear [Client's Name], We hope this letter finds you well. We regret to inform you that after careful consideration, our law firm has made the difficult decision to terminate our representation in your legal matter, effective [termination date]. We understand that this news may come as a surprise, and we want to assure you that this decision was not taken lightly. Our primary goal is to provide our clients with the highest level of legal services, and in some cases, there may arise circumstances leading us to conclude that it is in the best interest of all parties to discontinue the attorney-client relationship. We have identified the following reasons for terminating our representation: 1. Conflict of Interest: Upon reassessment, it has come to our attention that a conflict of interest exists that compromises our ability to effectively represent your legal interests. It is essential for us to maintain strict ethical guidelines and to uphold the integrity of our profession. 2. Lack of Communication: Despite our repeated attempts to reach you and address the ongoing requirements of your case, there has been limited or no response on your part. Effective representation requires open lines of communication to ensure a comprehensive and successful legal strategy. [If applicable, mention other specific reasons for termination such as non-payment of fees, failure to comply with our legal advice, etc.] We understand the importance of continuity in legal matters, and as such, we have taken certain steps to minimize any disruption to your case. First, we recommend that you immediately seek legal counsel to assume representation in your matter. Our termination of representation means that we are no longer able to provide legal advice or continue working on your case as your attorney. A smooth transition to new representation is crucial for the preservation of your legal rights and interests. Second, we have compiled and organized all relevant case materials, including documents, correspondences, and pleadings, which we will transfer to your new attorney upon their request. Please be aware that any legal fees or costs incurred until the termination date are still due and payable to our firm. We will provide a final invoice for any outstanding balances that need to be settled. We kindly request that you contact our office to schedule an appointment to discuss the transition process and address any concerns or questions you may have. Furthermore, we are committed to ensuring a seamless transition and assisting in any way possible during this change. Please let us express our gratitude for entrusting us with your legal matter thus far. We believe it is in your best interest to move forward with new representation that can better serve your needs.
