What is the name of your state? CA
I'm an attorney who practices IP. I'm fairly familiar with PI as I have gone to hearings, and performed discovery in PI cases a few times. My wife is now hurt and I am concerned how my personal representation would affect settlement negotiations. Should this go to litigation, I would have bring in a trial attorney.
I have no idea what the policy limit of the other party is, which is why I want to continue representation and limit support from other counsel. If the policy limit is low, I feel we can pop the policy. If the policy limit is high, then this case will likely go to trial or settle on the eve of trial.
The injuries to my wife involve arthroscopic surgery to the knee, and lifelong pain requiring medication to control moderate pain with medical expense to date of $23k.
Thanks in advance!
