Medical Malpractice Attorneys and Lawyers

My lawyer is asking me to tell my medical insurrance to pay for medical biolls from an accident, why?

I don't understand I think he is lying about the settlement amount. Do I have a right to know the exact settlment amount. What would be the best way to find out the total correct settlement amount. My lawyer asked me to get my insurance to pay for medical that was caused by a car accident he said the car insurrance doesn't want to settle for more so that i can pocket more he said to pay medical bills with my own medical insurrance.

1. what are you talking about? A few facts would be nice .
2. The best way to find out would be to read your settlement agreement before you sign it.
3. You have a right to ALL the facts. Your lawyer is working for YOU. Ask him why, and get a second opinion if necessary. Good luck.
4. >>Do I have a right to know the exact settlement amount.<< Absolutely. If you don't get it, report him to the state legal BAR. _____________________________ KrazyKyngeKorny (Krazy, not stupid) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
5. What do your insurance have to do with this settlement? Is this accident's bills related to the settlement? What accident? As for your lawyer, yes you have the right to know all the facts. But don't fight the guy yet (if you are wrong then it would make thing harder for you). If there is a settlement you will get an official communication from the people you are suing so read it very carefully or take it to an expert. Do not take a check if it doesn't come from the people you sued, or if it's in cash. If your lawyer is liying then the one way for him to steal would be to cash the original check himself pocket the money and make another check for you. DON'T sign anything your lawyer give you, even if he tells you that you need to sing FAST, tell him you need to take any document home to read them and ask for opinions before signing anything, if he refuse and try to pressure you or intimidate you then you know there is something wrong, change lawyer and report him to the bar if you find inconsistencies on the documents.
