My former power of attorney accepted a settlement on my civil case without my consent, and I need a qualified litigator to step in and undo the damage. The immediate goal is to challenge the validity of that agreement, have the court recognize that it was made without my approval, and put my original claim back on the docket. You would take over representation, review every document exchanged in the settlement discussions, prepare the necessary motions to set the agreement aside, and appear in court to argue my position. Experience navigating civil procedure, especially motions to vacate or rescind settlements reached through unauthorized authority, is essential because timing and proper notice will determine whether the court even hears us. If you have successfully overturned or modified civil settlements before, please outline your strategy for my situation, estimated timeline, and what information you will need from me first (case file, emails, correspondence with opposing counsel, etc.). I am prepared to move quickly once we agree on your engagement terms.
