3 weeks?

You will be waiting a lot longer than that, try 3 to 6 months

And thank your lawyer for the delay (All he wanted was a larger percentage because all he was thinking was of his own bank account)

You will now spend more money (which your lawyer is aware of AKA more lawyer fees) with a court trial where you may get ZERO, bit your lawyer will still get his fees from you , only problem is you didn't get the money.

Should have taken the 1st settlement that was offered because now you will have to convince a jury. And oh ya, did I mention that if you lose the case you have to pay their lawyers too?

Good luck
