Why Settling Your Claim is Our Priority
At Normandie Law Firm, our truck accident lawyers are aware of the difficulties directly caused by the truck accident in which you or a member of your family was involved. Truck accidents cause more than physical and emotional/mental harm. In many cases, truck accidents lead directly to financial despair. Victims and their families find themselves dealing with an unbearable amount of financial stress after accidents. Truck accidents can, undeniably, lead to medical expenses, property damage expenses, and funeral/burial expenses. Because truck accidents usually result in the loss of income, victims and their families could quickly find themselves unable to make ends meet.

The Average Time to Settle Truck Accident Claims
What is the average amount of time it takes for Crum & Foster to compensate you for a truck accident case? How long does it take Crum & Foster to pay a truck accident claim? The time it takes a truck accident claim to reach a settlement depends on a number of factors; because of the variance associated with the duration of the legal process and reaching a settlement, averages could often be misleading. Rather than to try to establish averages that apply to all truck accident claims, it is more effective to apply averages based on the details of the claim.
For instance, most truck accident claims settle within 2 years. Claims that are straightforward and encounter little to no delays during the legal process are likely to settle in less than 18 months. Claims that encounter some delays are likely to settle in more than 18 months but still less than 2 years. However, not all claims settle within 2 years. Although it only occurs rarely, some truck accident claims take longer than 2 years to reach a settlement. Why do some truck accident claims take such a long time to reach a settlement? If your claim is complex from the start, your case will take longer to reach a settlement. Besides being complex, these claims constantly encounter delays during the legal process.
Regardless of whether your truck accident claim is straightforward or complex from the start, you could be certain that our truck accident lawyers will do everything to ensure that your truck accident claim settles within a reasonable amount of time. Our lawyers understand the importance of helping you settle your claim as soon as possible without compromising the amount that you receive; do not hesitate to contact our firm for more information about the average amount of time for Crum & Foster to settle a truck accident lawsuit.
