The time between making a claim to settlement varies depending upon the complexity of the case. In some instances, where responsibility for the accident is admitted by a third party and injuries are not complex, settlement may be achieved within 6-9 months. In other more complex cases, a settlement may take much longer. Most claims are settled within 12-18 months.
In all but the rarest of cases, settlements are once-and-for-all matters so you will wish to be sure that you have fully recovered from your injuries or that you know what is the long-term prognosis for your recovery, and that there is no risk of a deterioration in your condition which has not been built in to the level of your damages. We can assist you in the interpretation of your medical reports.
In summary, it is a balance of not rushing into a settlement too quickly for fear of losing out on compensation for future symptoms, against not allowing the defendants to delay your payment unreasonably.
