How Long Do Personal Injury Claims Take?

The duration of a personal injury case depends on the complexity of the injury, liability disputes, and settlement negotiations. While some cases settle in a few months, others may take over a year if litigation is required.

Factors that affect claim duration include:

  • Severity of injuries – Serious injuries require medical evaluations, which may extend case timelines.
  • Liability disputes – If fault is contested, additional investigations may be necessary.
  • Negotiations with insurance companies – Some insurers delay payments or offer low settlements.
  • Court proceedings – If a settlement cannot be reached, legal trials may extend the case.

DLLC’s personal injury lawyers work towards efficient case resolution, ensuring clients receive compensation without unnecessary delays.
