What is the name of your state? California
My attorney received an advance payment on my behalf from my ins co. for medical costs. After case was settled and the attorney's contingency fees were paid, my ins co. was suppose to be reimbursed by my attorney, who held the money in trust.
He has sent them only half of the amount and is not able to account for the remaining funds, which is over $800.
All of the legal fees have been paid already. My question is, since he's holding the funds on my behalf, do I have a right to request that they be paid back to my ins co., or at least to account for the remainder of the money? Ultimately, the ins co. will demand payment from me if he does not pay them.
Please advise. Thanks.
