Answer #2
You should receive the your share of the settlement any day now. You should call your attorney and ask about it. It only takes one day for a check to clear.
Answer #3
My attorney and i went to mediation on Oct 7th 2010, and the check was written right there at the mediation meeting, i have called to see what is taking so long for me to receive my check, and it seems like i am getting a run around. How long should it take to receive my check? What can i do to hurry the process it has been over a month already.
