How Long Will Your Case Last?
For many claimants filing personal injury lawsuits, their financial situation does not allow for long, drawn-out legal battles with defendants. For these individuals, the goal is to quickly resolve a case, receive adequate compensation, and begin the process of healing and recovering. However, others choose a lengthier case in favor of greater financial compensation. In both situations, there are factors that can decrease or increase the amount of time your case takes.

Factors Affecting Case Length
In many cases, claimants want to push for a quick settlement or judgment. In these situations, the injured party may be willing to accept a lower compensation amount in order to have the case resolved quickly. On the other hand, a case can be made longer due to the following factors:
- Inability to agree to an early settlement
- Having multiple depositions
- Having a greater amount of evidence
In many cases, depositions and evidence are crucial for success. While this can make the legal process take more time, it can also strengthen a claimant’s arguments and his or her ability to secure a higher amount of compensation.
