You need to read the Agreement you signed when you retained your lawyer. If it says he is entitled to a fee out of all sums collected on your behalf, and he collected both the settlement and the medical pay, then he'd be entitled to a fee on both (although you may be able to get him to waive some of the fee or offer a reduced fee on the med pay part of the claim?) If his Agreement doesn't indicate he can charge a fee on medical pay, then he can't. If the medical pay was paid without him providing the necessary information for the insurer to make payment and they voluntarily paid it, then there may be no grounds for charging a fee thereon (again, it is typical that the Agreement would speak to this and control).
