Hi, I need advice on the above topic, following is the case history in brief:

Case - I am a government employee of age 54. I suffered a leg bone breakage in a bike to bike accident in 2014. owing to which I took around 120 leaves. The hospital charges were borne by my health insurance company.
I have filed a case against the insurer of the other party involved in the accident for compensation.

Present situation- My lawyer is pursuing this case from last 2 years, with no progress.

Questions
Q 1. How to arrive on a compensation amount
Q 2. Am I eligible to claim money for leaves I have taken, though it was medical leaves.
Q 3. My lawyer is asking me to accept 50k from other party insurer. saying that is the highest I can get.
Q 4. Other party insurance company is not coming to the courts on the dates and my lawyer is doing nothing about that

Thanks a lot in advance. Looking for your expert advice.
