Scan me, gave me the wrong information about how much I owe medical

How does your attorney make more money than you on your own settlement? Never heard that in my life. He is a con artist and told me false information. I asked him five times. How much do I owe my medical before I settled he told me amount and it turned out to be six times more.

Rich and staff were very professional and courteous throughout my personal injury case. The staff was very helpful filling out paperwork and getting all of my documents to the insurance company.
