It Depends on the Case
Simple claims with clear fault and modest injuries may settle in months. Complex cases with serious injuries or disputed fault can take a year or more.
Reaching Maximum Medical Improvement
Good attorneys often wait until you've recovered as much as you will (or your prognosis is clear) before settling, so the claim reflects your full damages.
Negotiation and Litigation
Most cases settle through negotiation. If the insurer won't be fair, filing suit — and being ready for trial — is what drives a better outcome, but it extends the timeline.
Why Patience Pays
Rushing to settle usually means accepting less. An experienced attorney balances speed against getting you full value.
