When an attorney ends representation, the notice filed with the court and served on the client must clearly state that the attorney will no longer represent the client in the matter and must include the client’s current address and a telephone number. This combination serves two purposes: it confirms to the court and opposing counsel that the attorney is withdrawing, and it provides a reliable way to contact the client for any future filings or communications. A separate court order isn’t always required just to withdraw, client consent isn’t typically necessary for withdrawal, and there’s no requirement that the notice state the attorney will remain available for questions. The emphasis is on signaling the end of representation and ensuring the client can be reached.
