Can we settle a dispute on our own?

When should I get a lawyer involved?

My lawyer who I hired on a contingency based contract apparently has dropped the ball in my case. I want to hire another lawyer who is more versed in a particular type of law. Can the current lawyer still hold me to the terms of the original contract if I reach a settlement with a new lawyer?

I'm having troubles with an attorney who I hired for three state compensation cases. I have called several times to get the case settled, but all I get is a ‘we'll look into it’ response. Can I just fire this lawyer?
