A Louisiana attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for over a week. This looks like something that needs to be sorted out between you and your attorney. Your post does not mention whether you signed a release. If you signed a release, the insurance carrier doesn't care if... View More

I agree with my colleagues that you should reach out to attorneys in Louisiana. Free initial consults without obligation are customary in such cases.

Many of the attorneys here might not be familiar with this subject - the forum deals largely with U.S. laws and courts. The Nigerian Bar Association and law schools could be a starting point for guidance on where to begin research on this subject. Good luck
