I just don't believe him for some reason. Well actually I was thinking he just wanted the case to be closed so he lied to me. I was thinking that the law in place when I got into the accident should be the law I would have to follow when settling but apparently not. I got fed up with the case and settled for just under 5000.
I probably should have asked this question before settling but my goodness it was all just one big headache and I just wanted it to be over.

The cap applies to you, you would be amazed at how many lawyers advised their clients to wait it out and not accept amounts between 5-10k that have screwed their clients. We had a girl refuse 10k the week before the cap was re-instated and now she is pissing her money away in legal fees trying to get more than $4344 or whatever the exact amount the cap is at.
