Unfortunately this is a vague response, but it really does depend on your situation. Should a settlement be reached, your personal injury case may resolve a lot faster than most people’s cases. However, if a settlement is not reached, your case will then need to go to civil court after filing a personal injury lawsuit. This will likely extend the timing of the process and can extend the case to last even longer. If you accept the first settlement offer, then on average, your case could be resolved within 9 months. At maximum, it can take up to a couple years for a resolution to be reached for your case. It also depends on the nature of your case. Typically, car accident cases are resolved sooner as opposed to those involving medical negligence.
