Did another attorney or law firm take over your late attorney's files? If so, that would be a good place to start inquiring. Otherwise, you may need to search the various court databases to locate the case you are looking for. It would make your search much easier if you know which court the case was brought in, the year in which the action was filed, the name of some of the parties to the action, etc. Be sure to consult your own attorney to protect your legal rights.
