There is one question we get for every single case regardless of the severity of it: How long is my case going to take to resolve? The quick answer is we have no idea. That depends entirely on the nature and extent of your injuries. A situation where you need two months to recover is going to be a different story than if you need surgery a few months down the road and six months of recovery.
Think of it this way. Until you were injured in a car accident, you felt fine. You get into an accident and now you do not. Over time, you are either going to get to the point where you feel back to normal or as good as you are going to get. It is that time, when you get to the point where you do not feel like you need much treatment or know what your future treatment is going to be, that we want to reach out, get your records, get your bills, and turn around and bring in your demand. At that point, if the other driver admits fault and is willing to accept liability, you can turn around and get all that stuff within one to three months and have everything ready to go.
The better answer is when you feel like you are back to normal or as good as you are going to get, we send out a demand about 30 days after getting your records and bills, and that is when it wraps up. But if it is more complicated than that or needs to go to litigation, it is going to take longer.
