Hi,
My current lawyer is not willing to put a challenge against the small cause court order(intermediate order regarding opposite party's amendment which got passed).
But i want to do so, so my question is can i give the high court challenge matter to other lawyer and continue with my existing lawyer for handling small cause case court once the stay order at small cause will be removed after high court gives decision?
Or is it necessary that same lawyer needs to present my case in high court & small cause court as well?
Thank you.

Yes, you can. However, every order in a civil proceeding is not appealable.

For the purpose of appeal, It is not necessary to use the same lawyer who appeared in the lower court.
