Ask your advocate for present status, and direct him to claim as per your legitimate demands, if the claim is not settled till today.

What is the basis of calculation of the amount of claim by you and insurance ?

How did you and your lawyer accepted the amount, if you were entitled for more... more...more ?

Dr J C Vashista (Advocate)     12 February 2020

The case settled/ compromised can not be reverted and no appeal lies against mutual agreement/ settlement of the claim.

If you have lost faith in your lawyer, change him/ her immediately.

It is advisable to consult another local prudent lawyer with relevant records for analyses, professional guidance and necessary proceeding.

Yes, a settled case cannot be reopened or re-agitated except on the grounds of fraud, coercion or undue influence.
