What can I do if my attorney does not contact me?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
Is this a retained attorney or court appointed attorney? If retained, you are always free to fire your attorney and hire another one. If court appointed, you will have to petition the judge. How long has the attorney gone without contacting the client? If it is persistent, I would suggest contacting the attorney and stating that if the client does not hear from him within 24 hours they are going to file a grievance with the state bar. Trust me, no attorney wants that. Hopefully that should propel him into contact, If not, you may have to try the other steps suggested.
