Understanding Vital Time Factors Related To Your McDonalds Injury Lawsuit
It is critical for all personal injury victims to know they have only two years from the date of their injury incident to file a claim against McDonalds. If the case is not filed before the Statute of Limitations expires on the second anniversary of the injury, you will likely lose the right to file a lawsuit against McDonalds to secure any compensation owed to you. It is also essential to know there are few exceptions to this time limit that provide added time beyond the two-year limit.
In addition, victims must know that the legal staff representing McDonalds is well aware of this time limit, and can try to use it to their advantage. Many injury victims contact Normandie Law Firm to ask how long it takes to settle an injury case against McDonalds, because the corporation’s legal team is not responding to calls or emails from the victim who is trying to resolve the matter without legal action. The McDonalds legal team would prefer the time for you to file your lawsuit expire or be very near expiration before they begin to discuss the case with you. The hope is that an injury victim without legal representation will be desperate to settle with McDonalds and accept any minimal offer they make as full compensation for harm sustained.
Finally, when you reach out to the experts at Normandie Law Firm for an estimated time to complete your McDonalds injury case, please know that there are many factors that will influence the time needed to reach a resolution. It is impossible and unrealistic to provide an estimate without gathering further details at your free consultation with a McDonalds injury attorney.
What Factors Can Impact How Long It Takes To Settle An Injury Case Against McDonalds?
Each case or lawsuit is as unique as the person it represents. The details surrounding the accident and your injuries can profoundly impact how long it will take to resolve your case. If the injuries are severe or require lengthy treatment and care, the case could be drawn out to ensure you are fully compensated for all of these costs and your time if you were unable to work while recovering.
It is also crucial for injury victims to understand that trying to resolve an injury incident on their own can be time-consuming and stressful. Even if you feel that the legal team you spoke to from McDonalds is working with you, never forget that they are only tasked with serving the best interest of their client, which is not you. The negotiation process could stall at any time, and you are left trying to hire a lawyer at the last minute before the Statute of Limitations on your case expires.
Finally, the legal team you select to litigate your McDonalds injury lawsuit can also vastly alter the time needed to complete the case. At Normandie Law Firm, our staff has worked with countless victims who suffered injuries at McDonalds. Our firm is known for working diligently to secure the most robust compensation possible for our clients and doing it swiftly. Don’t hesitate to contact our staff today to request a free consultation with a McDonalds injury attorney to provide you with more case-specific information and time estimates after becoming familiar with the facts of your injury incident.
What Is The Average Compensation Amount For A McDonalds Injury Case?
To better explain the potential value of your McDonalds injury case, we need to remind you that each case is unique. Therefore, the value of your injury lawsuit will be based on the actual losses and expenses you incurred to ensure you are fully compensated. You will work with your Normandie Law Firm legal team to compile all allowable expenses so they can calculate the amount sought in your lawsuit. The items typically included are:
- All current and estimated future medical costs related to the care, treatment, and rehabilitation of the injuries suffered at McDonalds
- Your legal costs to prepare, file, and litigate your McDonalds injury lawsuit
- Any lost income if your injuries prevent you from working until you are fully healed and for income lost due to the time spent at medical appointments and treatment
- The replacement cost of any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the incident
In instances where the victim suffers severe injuries or requires a lengthy recovery time, it is possible to seek additional compensation for pain and suffering. Because this is not an amount that can be verified with bills or receipts, your Normandie Law Firm legal experts will assist you in selecting a reasonable amount. They will refer to recently resolved cases with similar injuries or recovery requirements to ensure you are completely compensated for your pain and suffering.
What Might Be Considered Severe Injuries?
Sadly, there are many incidents at McDonalds locations across the state that result in significant injuries. Slip and fall, trip and fall, and harm due to a falling object are only some of the accidents that could cause one or several of these frequently severe injuries:
- Broken or shattered bones
- Injuries to the neck, back, or spinal cord
- Head injuries such as a skull fracture or traumatic brain injury
- Severe lacerations or puncture wounds that result in damage to internal organs and internal bleeding
- Facial damage to the eyes, ears, nose, or mouth
- Soft tissue or nerve damage
- Injuries to joint tissue, bones, or complete dislocations
These are only some of the injuries that are often considered severe and life-altering to the victim. However, it is crucial to know that other injuries can be regarded as life-changing because of the impact they have on the victim’s life due to their age or other medical conditions. While a broken bone might not be life-altering for a healthy young adult, it can be a debilitating injury to a frail senior citizen. Likewise, head trauma due to a falling object could be much more severe if the victim is a child whose skull is not fully developed.
