Can the Lawyer take out his fees before medical expenses and leave us without funds to fix her face?

It sounds to me like your lawyer made a good-faith judgment call if he (or she) agreed not to put on evidence about the day care center lying to the police if the day care center admitted liability. Once a defendant admits liability, other circumstances surrounding how the accident occurred become irrelevant. As far as giving you advice not to accept the $125,000, a lawyer cannot guarantee a result for his client. It sounds to me that if your daughter's past medical bills were $18,000 and her anticipated future medical bills are $44,000, then $63,000 is an extremely low verdict. That's only giving your daughter $1,000 for pain and suffering. Unfortunately, extremely low verdicts occur with about the same frequency as extremely high verdicts, but the public only hears about the extremely high verdicts. Your lawyer cannot be held to be a guarantor of any kind of verdict, and settling cases at mediation is the only way to take the uncertainty out of jury verdicts. As far as what your lawyer charged you, that would be controlled by the contract you signed with the lawyer. While the vast majority of my practice involved suing lawyers for legal malpractice, this is not a case I would ever consider taking. Very, very unfortunately you just got an extremely bad verdict. If you carried health insurance on your daughter, perhaps it would cover the surgery.
