What is the name of your state? New York
I was in an accident many years ago, in November, 2004, my case was settled. The insurance company sent a check to my attorney. I am still waiting to receive my money today. I have called the lawyer's office to ask about what is taking so long, there is nothing but an answering machine. My attorney has made NO attempts to call me and NOT ONE letter has been sent to my home advising me what the problem is. Am I being naive? Did my lawyer run off with my measly settlement? Is he ALLOWED by law to keep this money??? What should my next step be??
