    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
