Legal Question in Personal Injury in Maryland

I would speak to your attorney in a polite way about your concerns. It may be that he is doing everything he can, but the insurance company is dragging it's feet. Your attorney cannot do the impossible.

With that said, if you speak with him and don't get a warm fuzzy feeling, you are always free to fire your current attorney and retain a new one. There's plenty of plaintiff's attorneys out there who are willing to work hard for their money. If your current attorney has done any work on your case, he may be entitled to recover fees for that amount (either from you or out of any settlement/judgment you obtain), so I would be prepared for that.

If you have PIP coverage, it usually pays out within a month or so. Be patient -- that's an issue of your insurance company, not your attorney.

You need to feel comfortable with your attorney. Nevertheless, the law is a slow process. PiP forms should be completed and bills submitted. You should be looking to medical treatment first, and the replacement of your property next. You are entitled to the fair market value of your car at the time of the accident (9 days ago). Ask your attorney for progress reports. He should have no problem in providing them.

If you feel your present attorney is not performing you can seek another attorney. Recognize that the first attorney may be entitled to some compensation.

Personal injury protection claims are first party and should be paid timely. There are several factors to consider when and how making a personal injury protection claim. Your attorney should be assisting you with this.

Obtaining medical care is the utmost of importance.

Settlement may not occur for months.
