Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a personal injury case take?
The timeline varies significantly depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of injuries, and whether the case settles or goes to trial. Simple cases may resolve in a few months; complex cases can take two to three years or more. We keep you informed every step of the way.
Should I accept the insurance company's first settlement offer?
Almost never. Insurance companies' first offers are typically far below the true value of your claim. They are counting on you not knowing what your case is worth. Before accepting any settlement, consult with Rush Injury Law for a free case evaluation.
