How long does a personal injury case take to resolve?

My personal injury claim feels like it’s taking too long to resolve. What’s the normal time frame for an injury case to resolve?  

Every case is different.  Cases are different because every accident is different, every injury is different, every insurance adjuster is different and every insurance company’s policies are different. There is no bright-line rule on how cases are adjusted and evaluated.   Our experienced Phoenix personal injury attorneys will advise you as to what sets your case apart from others.  Very often we see it one way, and the insurance company sees it another way.  That is ok.  That is why we have a court system.     

When we submit a claim to an insurance company for your accident and your injuries, our experienced, Phoenix personal injury attorneys will assess your case’s value and make a demand to the insurance company.   The demand amount is based upon the facts of the crash, the nature, extent, and duration of your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, and your pain and suffering.  While you are still treating, our experienced Phoenix personal injury staff is hard at work collecting all the records and bills for your treatment, which will be the evidence to prove your claim and our request for money damages.

When delays occur, it may be a delay with your medical providers or an insurance adjuster who drags his/her feet to evaluate your claim.   At every step, our personal injury attorneys and staff will keep you updated.  We stay aggressive with following up and ensuring your claim receives attention.  

The last resort for extensive delays is filing the lawsuit, which our injury attorneys are not afraid to do – in fact, it’s what we do.   If your case is ignored, undervalued, or simply denied, we are here to help you take it to the next level to get a just result for you.
