I would like to know something. We had a lawsuit going on for 4 yrs due to my husbands fall at a home we were looking to purchase..Our attorney settled out of court for 10 grand and we ended up with only 2 grand..This is so bad..Isthere anything we can do to get more out of this?My husband is still in pain and the stress is much worse cuz of the pain....

Re: settling the case
You probably signed a full and final release with the settlement. This means that you would probably have given up all rights to pursue the at-fault party any further for damages. Based upon the facts that you have given, I do not believe that there is anything else you can do.
