The time it takes to resolve a personal injury lawsuit depends on many factors specific to your case. Some personal injury lawsuits take as little as six months, while others can take about two years. No matter what your situation is, it’s important not to rush into a settlement immediately since an insurance company’s initial offer tends to be inadequate. Instead, consider what factors are impacting your case alongside our attorneys, who will represent your best interests every step of the way.
How the injury occurred plays a pivotal role in determining the duration of the lawsuit. Was it a result of a car accident, slip and fall or workplace accident? The nature and complexity of the injury significantly affect the investigation and gathering of evidence.
A lawyer can help determine what wrong or illegal action the at-fault party may have taken that led to the accident. Determining this can be a complex and time-consuming process, often requiring extensive investigation and testimony.
The severity of the injury and the ensuing medical bills also contribute to the timeline. Gathering all relevant medical records and determining the cost of future medical treatment can take time.
Understanding the overall impact of the event on your life is another crucial factor. This includes quantifying physical pain, emotional distress, lost wages, and reduced quality of life, all of which require careful assessment.
