Q: I gave a verbal agreement to a car accident settlement, but now more medical stuff is happening
- am I able to withdraw to get more money?
A: Depends on the circumstance. However, until you've signed settlement documents, it is usually not enforceable - but could be. That's why it's important to have an attorney negotiate for you.
A: Withdraw more money? Was this an uninsured motorist settlement or was it with the defendant personally? You probably have not settled your claim but we would need more information to give you a more meaning answer.
