There is no law that No objection certificate is required from the previous Advocate. the Party can himself appear in the Court and give statement that he wants to change the counsel..

A party is entitled to change his advocate any time. But all all the high courts NOC is not essential. Wherever NOC essential, a person can demand NOC from his advocate, if he denies NOC, the party can approach to the court and inform the court of his intention to change, and court normally allows a person to change his advocate.

If the Counsel say no to deliver the NOC Vakalathnama, party can appeat before the court and can file a affidavit to permit him to change the counsel with the counsel on record, NOC on vakalathnama is not compulsury..
