Yes , an advocate can be changed after obtaining a relinquishment letter from the existing advocate, confirming that he has no objection to the client's engagement of another counsel and that all case files and documents have been duly handed over.

yes. you can always change the advocate at any stage of the proceeding of the case. but at this stage, there is very less chance for your to get another lawyer for just final hearing. since all the evidence has been adduced by the present counsel, even if they're any negligence or mistakes caused, curing the same through another fresh lawyer is an hectic task. anyway feel free to connect. can search my name in Google MOHAMMED THAYIB NM or meet directly at my office in Eranakulam.
