How Long Does It Take to Settle My Case?
Each personal injury case is different based on varying factors. Before our attorneys can conclude your case, our office needs convincing documentation to back up your claim, including medical records and billing statements for any medical treatments. If you’ve experienced property damage in an auto accident, your case can be settled as soon as our office sets up a claim with the responsible insurance company and you have a vehicle inspection done. For auto accidents, our office will also need property damage photographs, witness statements, police reports, and proof of lost income from your employer. The length of time it takes to settle your case depends on the amount of documentation as well as your insurance company. If your insurance company disagrees with our office’s evaluation, a lawsuit may have to be filed. If a lawsuit isn’t necessary, the settlement will take about 60 to 90 days after your documentation is submitted.
How Much Money Is My Case Worth?
Faber & Gunther Attorneys at Law is committed to getting the best outcome for our clients. Your case’s monetary value depends on certain factors, including:
- The injury you received
- The total cost of your medical bills
- The medical treatment you received
- Your injury recovery time
- The amount of fault the person being sued bears in relation to you or other parties
- The philosophy of the insurance company involved
- Your desire for a quick settlement versus litigation
- Your ability to describe the events of the accident and the injuries you suffered
- The existence of reimbursable or non-reimbursable health insurance
Our office is always willing to litigate to obtain a fair settlement, and we strive to maintain a good reputation with the local insurance claims industry so they know we’ll stand behind our clients. Our attorneys are dedicated to each case and will ensure you’re kept up to date on the latest developments.
Personal Injury Fees
Our office operates on a contingency fee basis for all personal injury cases, regardless of the type of accident, which means we don’t get paid if you don't. If the case settles without the need to file a lawsuit, our office charges 28 percent of the total settlement. If we do need to file a lawsuit, we charge 33.33 percent of the total settlement. If your case requires a jury trial (a rare situation), we charge 40 percent of the total settlement.
