We had better first determine just how long a long time, is. If you consider how complex some injury claims can be, what might seem like a great deal of time may not actually be so long.  So from that starting point, let's assume a long time is at least eighteen months.  It may take at least that long on your case because witnesses must be interviewed, the proper defendants must be identified and located, and all important evidence from your accident must be located and secured.  But most importantly, cases can regularly take eighteen months or more because your case probably will not be ready to be resolved (either by settlement or through a trial) until you have fully recovered from your injuries.  This is because the value of your case will be determined in large measure by the permanancy of your injuries, or the lack of permanancy.  Simply said, we have to wait to give your body time to heal so that your doctors can tell us which of your injuries are permanent, and which are not.  This is true no matter where your case is, be it Rochester, Geneseo, Hornell and any other place in New York the U.S. The one thing you DEFINATELY DO NOT WANT TO DO, is hire an attorney who promises to resolve your case quickly.  By doing so, you are almost certainly cheating yourself out of a great deal of money, as the inurance company involved will NOT pay you the true value of your case until they know how severe your injuries are. While we are sensative to your financial difficulties while your case is pending, we will do everything we can to be ready to move your case forward promptly when the time is right.

Q: Why Does It Take So Long For An Injury Case to Be Resolved?

A:

We had better first determine just how long a "long time", is.

If you consider how complex some injury claims can be, what might seem like a great deal of time may not actually be so long.  So from that starting point, let's assume a "long time" is at least eighteen months.  It may take at least that long on your case because witnesses must be interviewed, the proper defendants must be identified and located, and all important evidence from your accident must be located and secured.  But most importantly, cases can regularly take eighteen months or more because your case probably will not be ready to be resolved (either by settlement or through a trial) until you have fully recovered from your injuries.  This is because the value of your case will be determined in large measure by the permanancy of your injuries, or the lack of permanancy.  Simply said, we have to wait to give your body time to heal so that your doctors can tell us which of your injuries are permanent, and which are not.  This is true no matter where your case is, be it Rochester, Geneseo, Hornell and any other place in New York the U.S.

The one thing you DEFINATELY DO NOT WANT TO DO, is hire an attorney who promises to resolve your case quickly.  By doing so, you are almost certainly cheating yourself out of a great deal of money, as the inurance company involved will NOT pay you the true value of your case until they know how severe your injuries are.

While we are sensative to your financial difficulties while your case is pending, we will do everything we can to be ready to move your case forward promptly when the time is right.
