You should considering consulting other attorneys before you do anything. Feel free to give contact me. Good luck.
Re: Need Help in Virginia
The conduct you described is unethical and would constitute fraud and legal malpractice. You should contact the Virginia State Bar, and another lawyer. I am refering not only to the settlement, but your lawyer is not ethically permited to pay your medical bills with his money.
