Tlove1000, Your lawyer is most likely still building your case. That means as long as there outstanding medical expenses being charged in your behalf the case remains open. If you are through with your physical therapy and either replacement or repair of your car or complete repair has been done give him a call.
Before your case goes to trial a pre-trial hearing takes place between you (and any passengers in your car) and your attorney and the person in the other car and his or her attorney. The reason for this is to set pre-trial motions before trial. Your case may be settled out of court if your attorney agrees upon a large enough cash settlement from the other persons ins. company. He's acting in your best intrest. These settlement checks don't just fall out of the sky. Right now he battling the other ins. company attorney on you behalf.
Your attorney should take time to explain this whole process with you.
My wife and I waited nearly two years for an accident settlement in NY do to a drunken driver from PA.
Hope you receive a favorable result!

you're easily entitled to apply besides the fact that restoration coach you like. in the adventure that your vehicle is financed or leased, however, the insurer will usually make the look into to you and the physique save as in line with contract consisting of your lienholder/lessor. usually they make the look into to you and the lienholder and you will desire to pass interior the direction of the rigamarole of having them to sign off on it. on the least you would be able to desire to be a payee onthe verify considering which you will desire to no longer sign the verify over to the physique save till the maintenance have been finished satisfactorily. in case you own the motor vehicle loose and sparkling you are able to insist the insurer make the look into directly to you on my own, based on the quantity you have agreed upon. in spite of each and every little thing, whether or no longer you be certain to repair the wear is as much as you, as long as you're no longer contractually obligated by way of a lienholder or lessor to repair it. sturdy success!

As long as they want, and the lawyer plays that game too.Your best bet is to go directly to them and get it yourself.I did and had it an hour after they called for me to sign the release.
