An attorney is helping with all the paperwork for a simple uncontested divorce. In addition to all the forms for filing of the initial petition, they sent me MC-050-Substitution of Attorney. I have not asked to substitute them (we haven't even filed yet)! After asking the attorney about this form, they told me that it gets filed when the case is over. Is this true? The form says it is for replacing the lawyer .... And even if true, why would they ask me to sign it at the beginning of the process? I highly suspect that the lawyer is trying to get rid of me, but I can't understand why as they are being payed (through my legal plan) ?!
