Answers:
You can, but you'll have to pay the lawyer you have now for all the time he's put into the case. Depending on how much work he's done , it could prove to be very costly for you. also a new lawyer would have to start at the beginning, so I don't know if it would be any faster in the end. Unfortunately, lawsuits take awhile to settle. One year isn't that bad at all. It took my son almost 3 years to settle, and my daughter's accident was 3 years ago, and she hasn't settled yet.

These cases are known to drag on, this is done on purpose to limit the pay out. To start again will take even longer. Have a meeting with your lawyers and make sure they are doing everything possible to conclude your case.Health Question & Answer
