QUESTION

How does a Personal Injury Trust work?

Asked on Jan 31st, 2014 on Personal Injury - Florida
More details to this question:
PIP has paid its portion of medical bills, the attorney has taken her portion from the settlement, 2 of 4 providers claim to have received payment by PIP, I have received a partial payment from the settlement and my attorney is holding a sum of money in trust until the other 2 providers are paid. PIP claims that the providers have been paid. The way the trust was explained to me was that I would be receiving the full amount held in trust when the remaining providers have been received payment. Is anything subtracted from this amount held in trust before I receive it?

You'll have to ask your PI lawyer to explain it to you. He is the best source since he is hands on the case.
