Going by your query, I feel UR lawyer has not taken keen interest in the case.Better change the lawyer as U say U R holding all the documents.
Actually in MCOP cases the payment to the advocate is made after the settlement made by the Insurance company.U have to file MCOP within 90 days from the date of the accident.
UR english is as good as others,don't bother.

You can change the lawyer. If the case has been filed your new lawyer would find out.

Better Meet your Lawyer in Person and Sort out the Facts.Normally in Accident Claims Many Lawyers Do Not Charge Fees in Advance But would take Percentage In Claims So they do not Reply Properly to the Client's Doubts.Meet him and Confirm the Facts Then We Could Decide.

Check With His Junior the Case Details/Numbers Etc.At Least By Lunch Time He Should be Back Now being Court Hours.For Meeting Any Advocates Evenings would be Better.
