3 New York’s Rules of Professional Conduct set forth when withdrawal is required and permitted. An attorney can only terminate the attorney-client relationship upon good cause and reasonable notice. When retained in a legal proceeding, an attorney is generally required to represent the client until its conclusion. An attorney, however, may not freely terminate 2 the attorney-client relationship.
