Complaining over this kind of issue to local bar will get you absolutely nowhere. I did switch attorneys, two or three times, but they all do this and all assert that all others do it. To boot, in some situations such as family court, switching attorneys can be and often is taken by the judge as a sign that you don't have your shit together well enough to hold down an attorney. Even if you switched for a completely legitimate reason, they can hold it against you and play favorites with the other counsel. This was especially true for a family member of mine going through such a circumstance in a small, rural community where all possible attorneys to hire in the area had close dealings with all of the judicial staff.
- jacques_chester 11y agoOK, you had a bad experience. I've had good experiences. Let's leave it at that.
- dajohnson89 11y agoYou've had a good experience,he has had bad experiences. See the difference? The only way you repackaged the discussion was a cheap maneuver, and misleading. Also, his (only anecdotal, blah blah blah) argument took pains to paint a picture of the entire field/profession using not only his (multiple, to your one) lawyer experiences but also secondhand accounts of people saying the entire industry charges a lot for email.

- jacques_chester 11y ago> The only way you repackaged the discussion was a cheap maneuver, and misleading. I object to this. I didn't "repackage" the conversation. I pointed out we had diverging experiences. Telling someone that their experiences didn't happen (his or mine) is plainly silly.
