Hire another attorney if you’re not satisfied with your current one
You can change lawyers if you are unhappy with the one you hired. Defendants who hire their own lawyer have the right to fire them at any time, without court approval. You don’t even have to justify the firing. Changing lawyers will probably be costly. The defendant will have to pay the original attorney whatever portion of the fee the original lawyer has earned.
