How Long Does a Truck Accident Settlement Take? 

The timeline always varies.  Settlement discussions often begin after your medical treatment has progressed enough to understand your injuries and future needs. Gathering medical records may take 8 to 12 weeks, and negotiations may take another 60 to 90 days. If the case goes to litigation, the process can take significantly longer, we are talking months to years in this scenario. There is no guaranteed timeline that can be applied to your case, so your truck accident lawyer can explain what may affect the process in your situation.
