Can I sue my attorney after settlement?
What if my lawyer settles without my consent; can I sue then? Yes you can. However, you would have to prove that your lawyer did so without your authorization because the settlement was far less than what you were truly owed and didn’t effectively represent your case or that the lack of communication was systematic.
Do lawyers really care about their clients?
Some lawyers care very much about their clients (and most are not going to say otherwise) and some care very little. Having satisfied clients is a good way to continue doing business. But there are people who are very passionate about their jobs and the law and this is true in every profession – not just law.
