Truck Accident Case Timeline

Answer:

One common question we hear with potential clients is how long a case is going to last. Those who have been involved in trucking cases, particularly up here in Nassau County where we have trucks clogging up the only east-west corridor state road 200 going to and from the paper mills here, want to know how long it’s going to take. Trucking accidents are not like automobile accident cases. They are more complex. They will take longer. If we cannot resolve your case without filing the lawsuit, the lawsuit will get complex. It could take a couple of years. We could resolve your case without filing a lawsuit in 9 to 14 months, maybe less. It depends on several factors: our ability to collect records and get medical information, for one. If we get into the lawsuit, it will take longer than an automobile accident case simply because it’s more complex— two years, maybe longer. If you’ve been involved in a trucking accident in Nassau County or Duval County, call us. We’ll sit down. We’ll go over the ins and outs and how best we can help you.
