It is debatable. It might take weeks or years to get an injury settlement. The length of time it takes is determined by a variety of factors, including the type of personal injury case (e.g., car accident, slip and fall, or wrongful death); the severity of your injuries; the extent of treatment you require following the accident; the defendant’s willingness to settle out of court; and so on. The best method to guarantee that your lawsuit is resolved as soon as possible is to contact an attorney immediately away.
