Has anyone sent a disengagement letter to client for failing to respond after 30-60 days? I drafted a Complaint and have followed up repeatedly with emails, texts, and voicemails so there is a clean record of my communication.
SOL expires in & July 2023 and I have advised her of that repeatedly. obviously I cannot file Complaint on her behalf if she refuses to communicate.
Any thoughts?

I think you're fine to withdraw and would have perfect justification if you were challenged on it. I have heard of attorneys filing a complaint and then immediately withdrawing in such a situation to try to save the client from the SOL issue. But even if you're not comfortable doing that, I think you're good to withdraw now. I would do it sooner rather than later so the client theoretically has sufficient time to find new counsel before the SOL expires. Make sure your withdrawal letter mentions that there is an upcoming SOL.

Thanks A2. This is my thought too. I have reminded her of the SOL in my prior emails/text messages but I will make sure it is in the disengagement letter as well.

Is she okay?

In most jurisdictions you cannot withdraw from representation under these circumstances unless you have made some effort to locate your client.

I currently work at a small PI firm in Atlanta were EVERYTHING is settled presuit. If we’re unable to settle, then it’s referred to another firm for litigation. This whole process seems very atypical to me and the attorneys rarely touch a file until the first liability offer is received. The paralegals handle everything from intake to drafting the demands. The attorney briefly skims (does NOT read) the demand packages and signs. Is this ethical?? Anyone else work at a firm that is run this way??
