Hi everyone,

Today I spoke to my lawyer from legal aid regarding my eligibility after started working, I asked him how much do I have to pay from now for my case and he replied I need to switch to private lawyer as he is only working for legal aid and cannot take private clients.

I don't know if anyone experience like this, I mean if you start working you need to find another lawyer because legal aid lawyer cannot accept fees from the clients who is not eligible for getting free services.

I find this very unconventional because this lawyer know everything about my case. I need your advise who had gone through similar to this or know about this because now I'm confused.
