Every case is unique. Some may settle in a few months, while more complex litigation can take over a year. Factors include the duration of your medical treatment, the cooperation of the insurance company, and the complexity of the evidence. We pride ourselves on being a focused three-person team, which allows us to provide personalized attention to keep your case moving forward.

Most personal injury cases are settled out of court. However, if an insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial. Our firm has decades of litigation experience to advocate for you in front of a judge or jury.
