My staff and I are often asked this very question. And for good reason. When a potential client calls my office it is because they have carefully considered their situation and they need help. They’ve been injured and may be out of work and they have medical bills piling up. They also have other bills and responsibilities to worry about and every day seems to bring more bills.
When faced with stacks of bills and not being able to work– time feels like an enemy.
When a client asks, “How long will my case take?” what they are really asking is this, “How long will it be before I can pay my rent, my credit cards, my hospital bills or my car payment?” or “How long will it be before my life feels normal again?”
Every case is unique and some cases take more time than others. Timing of cases depends on many different factors including, the extent of your injuries, the insurance company that you are negotiating with, the length of time that you receive treatment with a medical provider for your injuries as well as how busy the courts are in your area. That being said, the best way to get your case to move forward is to consult with a personal injury lawyer. Click here for a FREE consultation with The Thomson Law Firm.
When you call for your FREE consultation, an intake specialist will ask you questions about why you are calling. It is helpful to have as much information about your accident and injury as possible. Our intake specialists will ask for:
- a description of the accident that caused your injury
- defendant’s information
- location of the accident
- what type of medical treatment you are receiving
- description of your injuries
- if you have missed work
- how the injury has affected your life
If you don’t have your medical records or the accident report when you call, that is okay. Our legal assistants can order those for you. We are here to help.
