lawyer offers money under the table
is there anything you can do if your car accident case has been going on for 3 yrs and no money seen, the lawyer went to court and said it would be more time. the lawyer had come to my work and said he would pay me a couple thousand dollars from his pocket if i signed a paper. if he went to court there must have been a settlemet? and why would he offer me 2 thous from his pocket if there was no settle from the court? anything i can do to see if the case was settled in or out of court?

Although there is nothing unusual about a case not being resolved in over 3 years, the facts you allege are unusual and should be investigated. There are a number of things you can do to discover the true status of your claim. Please contact me at 401.351.8900 or by email to further discuss your options.
