The timeline of the settlement process varies depending on the specifics of
a truck accident case. If the claimant has relatively minor injuries that
resolve quickly and do not result in concerns about long-term prognosis,
those cases can be resolved relatively quickly. However, if the claimant has
catastrophic injuries that require months to recover and need continuous
treatment, those cases take much longer. Therefore, claimants should never
negotiate a truck wreck case until they fully understand the extent of their
injuries and prognosis.
