Q&A

How long does it take to settle my personal injury case?

The timing always depends on a case by case situation. There are many types of injuries and each one has there own timelines due to information and documentation gathering, getting responses from the client, going back and forth with the insurance company, etc. We will keep our clients informed during the entire process, which helps answer those types of questions.
