You are legally entitled to fire your attorney any time for any reason. So feel free to find another attorney. I would find the new attorney first before firing the current one so you are not left exposed for any amount of time.

My standard disclaimer: I am not offering legal advice, assume I do
not know the law in your state or at all for that matter and that I am
just making suggestions for starting points for when you do speak with
an attorney. Do NOT rely on anything I write and contact a lawyer in
your area immediately after reading my posting.
