Post: shify lawyers-Attorney misconduct
Posted by Mike Chatreau on 10/09/01
I am paralyzed from a car accident and my attorney gave me money and a car in advance. He told me since he was giving me money and stuff that I should sign and give him 50% of my settlement. I was stupid, confused and unstable and I did. He got 50% of my settlement and we didn't even go to trial. We settled out of court and he received 50% of my money. He almost got a half of million dollars! He got more then me and I'm the one who is paralyzed for the rest of my life. Can he do this? Can I do anything to him? Can he get disciplined from the state bar? Thanks and please email me back. My email is surferjoeshreds@aol.com
