More details to this question:
There are lawyers involved for the insured, the claimant and the current auto company that paid the claim. My question is this. If the insured decides to increase his auto liability limits now, to protect himself going forward, can the claimant receive any more money after they exhausted his initial liability limit.

You will need to address this with your insuance carrier or personal lawyer as policies vary. As a general rule - they are occurance policies and the coverage available when the crash occurs is what is availabe, canceling or increasing afterwards should not affect the crash coverage.
