Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

I hired a local attorney to represent me in a 'slip and fall" case with Travelers Insurance. I fell down some shoddy cement steps at a house I was renting. This happened 3 years ago. The insurance co does not want mediation and is quite sure they want to go to trial. I have been sent to a zillion Dr's and have gone through the county health care system at a snails pace....My life has been consumed by this for 3 years ! Now it has started pulling good friends in for depositions ( none have take place yet but supeonas ( sp ) have been issued etc and since it has been so long, no one even really remembers what happened and it is becoming a HUGE burden to everyone ! I was self employed at the time and I can't really show proper income etc....I am left with injuries that will be with me for the rest of my life and no amount of money will make up for it. I have a feeling that in the end, there won't be much to show on MY end anyway.......How do I make this whole thing STOP ! I can not take it anymore !!!! Can I just stop this whole process ????? I am on my second attorney ( my first one died ) and this is causing a lot of grief with friends. PLEASE help !

There are too many gaps in your recitation to fully understand the situation.You can end it any time you want by filing a dismissal but I would not suggest that based on what I know.If you want to talk about this call me at 916-448-8831
