My lawyer is not attending to my case in the court. This has happened for last 3 dates. Once he faked fever and skipped attending court.
In this situation what are my options? How do I change my lawyer and can he cause any problems if I change to a new lawyer.

Had the same issue a few years back. Once he said he is on his way to the courtroom as we were next in line, asshole didn’t show up. Instead sent a junior lawyer to take another date.didnt answer my calls for a hour and when he did says he had to leave due to an emergency. Followed up with him on a daily basis to get the case transferred to another lawyer. He just kept dragging his feet to give the noc and hand over the docs. Took me 4 months to do it.
Just be patient and keep pushing these guys have thick skin and zero morals.

This can happen when clients don’t pay fees. Pay up. You can change your lawyer but that also requires an NOC from your current lawyer.

Change your lawyer regarding if you want you can terminate the current lawyer services merely by sending a notice to him about not requiring services anymore

Hire one of the lawyers that did show up. Hang around for a bit and observe which ones fight their client cases well.
