What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WA
I'm in the mist of a lawsuit against one my previous renters due to skipped rent payments and major damage/neglect to a rental home. Our case goes to court in about a month. With all the legal costs plus back rent and damages I am seeking approximately $15k. These are fixed costs with receipts - etc.
The renters contacted my attorney today wanting to schedule a meeting with them and specifically asked that I be not present. My attorney agreed without checking with me first. I'm not sure what to think about this.
They would like to settle, but also countersued me with BS stuff after I sued.
I have never heard of anything like this happening before and I'm not sure what to think, is it even legal and would this meeting between my attorney and them even benefit me?
Help!
