We have civil case ongoing and lawyer is not giving us the return statement and documents filed by defendants in Ambur court.
If we ask lawyer says don't worry and I will take care of it, this is standard word given every time.
Can we get the written and documents by some other means?
Should I change the lawyer as well?
Dr. J C Vashista (Advocate ) 18 August 2025
If the advocate insists on retaining your documents, issue a legal notice for filing a complaint before concerned (State) Bar Council.

1. You can get all documents directly from the court copying section by paying necessary fees. If you are unhappy with your lawyer, you can change your lawyer.

In my view, the advocates are required to take their clients into confidence as to the pleadings and documents filed by the opposite side and provide copies, if sought for. However, it is an unfortunate fact that they seldom abide by the etiquette.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Advocate) 18 August 2025
If your advocate is not cooperating then you can very well change the law by terminating the vakalatnama and obtain the copy through the new advocate.
