Kentucky Substitution of Attorney is a legal procedure that allows a client to change or substitute their attorney in a legal case. This procedure is used when a client no longer wishes to be represented by their current attorney, or when the attorney is no longer able to act as the attorney of record for the client. There are two types of Kentucky Substitution of Attorney: limited and general. A limited Substitution of Attorney allows a client to change or substitute their attorney for a specific purpose, such as a specific court hearing or trial. A general Substitution of Attorney allows a client to replace their attorney for all purposes related to a legal case. Both types of Substitution of Attorney require the written consent of the client and the current attorney, as well as the approval of the court.
