My other question is what is contingency agreement? Is that my agreement with my attorney?
Yes, but it's more specific than that. A contingency agreement (or contingent fee agreement) is an agreement between a lawyer and client that provides that the attorney's payment comes only from the client's recovery and specifies the percentage that the lawyer will receive. In personal injury cases, 25-40% is common.

Re: the amount I am receiving, I understand 1.5 times the amount of my medical bills is a reasonable amount?
We know nothing about your case and, therefore, have no way of intelligently assessing the reasonableness of any settlement.
