Bicycle Accident Claim Timeline

Answer:

During our initial consultation with a client recently in Tampa who was injured as a bicyclist, they asked how long their case was going to take. The number one consideration at the beginning is how long it takes them to complete their medical treatment. The second consideration is whether or not the insurance company is going to be reasonable and give you a fair offer without filing a lawsuit. If you do have to file a lawsuit, that process tends to be a little bit longer. You want to make sure that you go with a trial lawyer because that way you don’t have to switch lawyers at the last minute. Experienced trial lawyers will take your case to trial, and they’re often taken more seriously by insurance companies. If you have any questions about how long your case might take or if you’ve been injured in a bicycle accident, please give us a call.
