Legal Question in Personal Injury in Florida
My personal injury case was settled in December I was sent a notice that they would hold my money for 90 days. I had some follow up care at VA hospital. My attorney states he is waiting for a bill from the VA hosptial. The VA has not yet provided any bills. I spoke with VA on Thursday and they state that I am exempt from being billed, because I receive a small pention. When is my attorney required to give me my settlement??

I never heard of this procedure. Why is the money being held? Unless there is a written claim of lien, you are entitled to be paid.
