Asked in Personal Injury and Car Accidents for California

Q: I've told a law firm I no I don't need there service. They keep asking me to sign a contract and won't stop

After telling them I found another lawyer and if I needed there service I would call them. They message me everyday and it I looked over the contract to sign so they can get started on my case. I told them I'm not signing anything and I don't need there services. They won't stop.

A: that is a little disturbing. It could be a service they are using that isn't working properly. I would suggest you send a letter to the main attorney informing them of the situation. That should get it to stop.. and obviously just ignore the messages being sent.

A: have the lawyer you found contact the first firm.

if you signed up with them already, then you have to sign substitution of attorney papers...........or at least a demand letter by new attorney of all paperwork the 1st atty had.

A: I agree with Dale Gribow's answer below. Your current attorney should be contacting the firm for you and should be able to answer any questions like this in the future.
