I am a victim of legal malpractice in an auto accident case where another driver rear ended me. My attorney did not tell me my case was being investigated for fraud by the other driver's insurance company. (He had his assistant email me a request to come into his office under the ruse that the other driver's insurance agent just wanted to ask me a few questions. When I arrived at his office, he told me my case was being investigated.) He also failed to negotiate my medical bills to an amount lower than the limit of the other driver's policy. The other driver's insurance limit was $ 100k and my medical bills totaled over 115k. I have a new lawyer and my case is still pending. I'm still in pain and still require medical care. I suffered two herniated discs and an annular fissure from my accident.

He isn't responsible for your injury....and it may be hard to prove that it was possible to settle the medical bills for less than the 100K...even if it was possible, you can really only prove damages in the amount of 15k from what you said in the question...Unlikely that he will pay all of that...
