It’s possible that the lawyer isn’t avoiding you, specifically — perhaps he has a medical issue of his own, or maybe he’s involved in a lengthy trial or other proceeding — and the receptionist has been instructed to withhold client calls and meetings. Often, the “gatekeeper” isn’t familiar with the relationships and backstory in an office.

If you can’t get attention or response from your lawyer, you might have no choice but to hire a new attorney and request that they handle it. The other option is to contact your state bar association, which might be able to assist or provide additional resources. Reply Maria Gustissays March 17, 2021 at 10:00 am
A lawyer has an ethical obligation to communicate with his clients. If he’s holding documents or if his lack of communication is holding up your ability to settle the estate, he’s not meeting his ethical duty to you as a client. You might wish to send a certified letter, as you mentioned.
Also significant in understanding the epigraph is Atticus' answer to Jem's question of how a jury could convict Tom Robinson when he's obviously innocent: "'They've done it before and they did it tonight and they'll do it again and when they do it — it seems that only children weep.
As Scout tells Uncle Jack, "When Jem an' I fuss Atticus doesn't ever just listen to Jem's side of it, he hears mine too" (9.46).
The novel ends after Bob Ewell attacks Scout and Jem, and Boo Radley rescues them, killing Bob in the process. Atticus and Sheriff Heck Tate have a conversation about how to deal with the situation, and Scout walks Boo home.
Among Boo Radley, Tom Robinson, and Jem, we can say that Atticus Finch is also a mockingbird because he represents good, morality, and the willingness to see the world from someone else's perspective. His significant notion is to understand people's actions, not to judge them.
Atticus reveals that Mrs. Dubose was addicted to painkillers but was determined to overcome her addiction before dying; he made Jem read to her as a distraction from her pain.
The Ewells know that they are the lowest of the low amongst the whites in Maycomb. They have no money, no education, and no breeding. The single thing that elevates them at any level in the community is the fact that they're white.
The judge agreed but unfortunately for Boo this meant that he spent the next 15 years of his life locked up in his childhood home. He becomes like a ghost who is unable to lead a normal fulfilling life, apparently rebelling only when he stabs his father in the leg with a pair of scissors.
Arthur "Boo" Radley, Jem and Tom Robinson were clearly meant to be 'mockingbirds'. There were three in total. I think author mockingbird is used as a symbol to show the loss of innocence which means Tom Robinson was considered.
Boo Radley is a white individual who never left his house because of the ways society viewed him. Tom Robinson was a black man who got framed of a crime that he did not do.
Symbolically, Boo represents both Scout's childish understanding of the lives of people around her, and also the genuine risks and dangers that face children as they grow up in the world. As a ghost-like figure, Boo also symbolizes aspects of the town's past, such as intolerance, inequality, and slavery.
Nonetheless, no matter how much Atticus fans may try to ignore his true self, the person who knows him best, Harper Lee, tells us that he is a bigot, a segregationist, a Klan sympathizer, and a racist.
