Following an accident that resulted in injuries to yourself or a loved one, you may be ready to pursue an injury claim in order to recover damages for your economic and noneconomic losses. However, you’re likely also wondering how long your claim will take to settle, and how long it will be before you have a check in hand. At the law offices of Buck, Toscano & Tereskerz, Ltd., our attorneys work hard to settle your claim as quickly as possible while still maximizing the amount of compensation you receive.
The Settlement Process – Things That Affect How Long a Claim Takes to Resolve
Each claim is very different, and there is no one-size-fits-all formula for determining how long a case may take to settle. Indeed, some cases may be settled in a few short weeks, while others could take a year or more to resolve! Some factors that may determine how long your case takes to reach settlement include:
However, litigation is a possibility, and it is one thing that can significantly lengthen the claims process. Litigation can also be very expensive. For these reasons, our lawyers always prioritize reaching settlements out of court, and caution our clients against filing a lawsuit and litigating a claim unless doing so is necessary.
How You Can Speed Up the Injury Claims Process
While you cannot control how much an insurance adjuster will offer you or how quickly they will be motivated to act, there are a few things that you can do on your end that may speed up the process, if ever so slightly. These include:
The more proactive you are about your claim, the faster it is likely to be resolved, especially barring any of the major factors listed above.
