In most cases we don’t push to settle until your condition has stabilized and the full extent of your injuries is clear. Settling too early — before you know whether you’ll need more treatment — usually means leaving money on the table.
Once treatment stabilizes, we assemble the records, bills, and evidence and present a demand to the insurer. Straightforward claims with clear liability can move quickly from here.
Most cases resolve through negotiation. How long that takes depends largely on the insurer — whether it engages seriously or tries to delay and underpay.
When an insurer won’t pay fairly, we file suit. Litigation adds time — often a year or more through discovery and trial — but a credible willingness to try the case is frequently what produces a fair result.
A simple claim may resolve in a matter of months; a serious or disputed case can take a year or more.
