Legal Question in Mediation in Florida

Settlement agreement

I had mediation yesterday and I was forced into signing a settlement agreement I do not agree with. My own attorneys and the mediation were threatening me and placing extreme pressure on me to sign. I told them numerous times NO, and I told them I felt cornered, pressured, closterphobic and that I did not like it. They said I needed to take the offer and stop thinking of just myself. They would not let me leave. After I signed and got outside to fresh air, I regained my strength and was pissed and started calling them to cancel, but of course no one would return my calls. Can I get out of the agreement and continue my case in court?

Re: Settlement agreement

Porbably not. You can give it a shot, but you will need anpther lawyer to do so. Your lawyer now has a conflict.
