Re: settlement
Settlement by C&R can be very complicated especially if you are currrently receiving social security disability benefits as well. The best thing is to have an attorney review your case for any outstanding issues or payments and calculate your medical expenses into present value. Then we can make a recommendation to you whether you should settle at all and if so, for how much.
Re: settlement
This is a very difficult question to answer since I do not know all the details of your disability. Are you on State Disability? Has the insurance carrier been paying? Did you Stip your case? Please feel free to contact my office and I will probably be able to give you a clear answer to your question. My new phone number is 818.385.0520.
