If you were seriously injured in a motorcycle wreck and have mounting medical bills, you might be anxious to recover money to cover your medical expenses and to replace your lost income. Motorcycle accident cases can be complex, and your attorney will need time to prepare a strong case to support your claim.
Generally, a motorcycle accident where the victims sustained minor injuries could be resolved within a few months. However, motorcycle accident cases typically involve significant injuries that may require surgery and months of physical therapy. The length of time you receive medical treatment for your injuries will affect how long your case will take. Negotiating a settlement generally won’t occur until you’re healed and your medical expenses are known.
Questions of liability can impact the time it takes to resolve motorcycle accident claims. For example, if the negligent driver you believe was responsible for the accident disputes their liability, the case may not be resolved without litigation. A trial may be necessary for a judge or jury to review the evidence and hear from witnesses who saw the motorcycle accident. The number of cases on a court’s docket can affect how quickly your case is heard. We will work hard for a quick resolution.
