Public Trustee had already inform the Defendant's Lawyer to prepared the final Settlement accordingly on 22 Nov 2020
 
* Only referring at my medical report which I posted earlier " I might need a surgery cost about $30k to 40k", so with the amount compensated now, whether anyone you think is fair?

Dear Sir
Thank you! After contacting you again the PT officer finally call and email me today. With the attached document PT had already informed the Defendant's lawyer firm to prepared the final settlement payment accordingly on 22 Nov. 2022 and today your PT check with the Defendant's  lawyer, the answer from the lawyer was they haven't received any cheque from the Insurance Co.

As usual same old trick used by the Defendant's lawyer again, when the State Court order them to make payment in advance for the legal fee to my lawyer to help my spouse "whom is a non related party for this accident" to provide and arrange a proper documents for their requested if they need it. At that time they also delayed the payment and drag the Hearing date again!

Anyway FYI  I had given them 14 days deadline from today onwards to settle my compensation. With already 8 days notice from PT letter to the Defendant's firm and my 14 days deadline, 22 days it should be more than enough time for the payment to reach me before this 14 days.

Once again, Thank you Sir!

To close this case and update the people who care, payment was received on 14 December 2022 by my lawyer on the date of the deadline given to the Defendants side by me and it drag another 2 days for the compensation amount to be credited to my bank account. The settlement amount was around $40,000.00 and after a rough estimation calculation for my compensation from this Car Accident that happened on January 2016. I only take back less than $15,000.00 after deducting my earlier medical expenses, all the three lawyer legal expenses and legal fee. 

1. My Medical leave is more than 200 days, I can’t claim! 

2. Specialist doctor medical report 1. Stated for future surgery if needed is around $30,000.00 to $40,000.00, I can’t claim! 

3. Specialist doctor medical report 2. Stated I can only work for 3 days and for this case, I lost my claim for the remaining days that I’m not working for almost 5 years, I can’t claim!

4. My future medical expenses, I can’t claim!   

*All the above are due to the mistake done by my lawyers, one has made a wrong claim amount without my notice and started to threatened me to accept the Defendant’s last minutes offered and discourage me to proceed for the first Hearing, Next was my existing lawyer that took over the case for months till the second Hearing, they did not checked and realized the mistake done by the first lawyer and I was accused with false allegation by the Defendant’s Lawyer during the Hearing that he said me cheat, which I had already proven him wrong(with Hard copy Evident) after my second Hearing that the mistake and claim amount was done by my ex-lawyer which I was not aware of. 

If you are in trouble you need professional help and trust what your lawyer did, for my bad experience this is the reasons why I don’t trust any lawyer anymore unless the Authority is going to do something with it!

To end this matter, I sincerely hope our Government, the Ministry of Law have to come out with a stricter rule and code of conducts for these lawyer to abide to as to STOP this kind of bad happening again to a Layman (Victim) in Singapore. 

May God Bless the Good People and A Happy New Year to you!
