When you're dealing with a lawsuit, it's important to be clear with your lawyer about your preferred way of communication throughout the lawsuit.
We recommend that you have a conversation with your lawyer from the beginning and talk with them about how they usually communicate with their clients, since each firm has a different way of handling things.
For our firm, I only do calls by appointment. This way I'm not interrupted when I'm working on a client's case -- I'm solely focused on the case I'm working on.
Our clients are welcome to text or email, though.
In having this policy of not taking calls AND communicating how our clients want (letter, calls, texts, email, etc), our clients know they can get in touch with my firm how they want and they will get answers.
So tell your lawyer your preference, have your lawyer tell you what they can do, and only if it is a good fit should you hire the lawyer.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks for watching!
