Determining the Time that It Takes to Settle a Claim
Under perfect conditions, it would take little to no time to settle an accident claim – all parties involved would be cooperative and a settlement would be finalized in a matter of weeks. Unfortunately, this rarely happens. The length of time that it can take to settle an accident claim against Airbnb can vary significantly based on the details surrounding the incident and the claim.
Some of the factors that should be considered when determining the time that it takes to reach a settlement against Airbnb are listed below:
- The types of injuries sustained in the accident – cases with severe injuries or a variety of injuries tend to take longer to settle. This is because more severe injuries are associated with a longer treatment time.
- The extent of treatment needed for the injuries – normally, the settlement process cannot begin until medical treatment has been completed.
- The cooperation of the insurance companies involved – insurance companies do not want to pay out claims because they ultimately end up losing money. Insurance companies often resort to tricks to avoid paying out claims; this can include not responding to claims on time, not responding to calls, not responding to emails, etc. Sometimes, insurance companies will even outright deny claims, knowing that many claimants will just accept the denial and will not try to appeal or take any other action.
- The cooperation of the claimant – unfortunately, some claimants can actually negatively affect the settlement process by failing to meet deadlines, submit paperwork, submit signatures, etc. Although claimants typically are not trying to sabotage their own settlement, they can unintentionally prolong the settlement process.
- The competence of your legal team – a competent legal team can handle any claim effectively regardless of any issues that arise during the process. Unfortunately, many claimants hire the first lawyer that the speak to without really making sure that they have the experience necessary to handle the claim well. This can significantly delay the settlement process and sometimes even cause the case to fail entirely.
These are just some of the factors that could affect the time that it could take to settle a lawsuit. For more information about different details that could ultimately affect the time that you have to file your lawsuit, do not hesitate to contact the experts at our law firm immediately.

If it were up to our firm completely, we would conclude our clients’ settlements within 6 to 8 months.
Although we aim to settle claims within 6 to 8 months of starting the process, we are always upfront with our clients about the time that it could realistically take to reach a settlement. Typically, all claims have some sort of issue. Even minor issues (including simple miscommunications, for example) can lengthen the settlement process significantly. Cases with minor issues can take 10 to 12 months to settle. More significant issues can a claim to take up to 18 months to settle. Cases with severe issues can take 24 months or more to settle.

I Am Not Happy with The Time It’s Taking to Settle My Claim
Is your case taking too long to settle? Are you unsatisfied with the time that your current lawyer is taking to settle your case? Although your case could be taking long to settle due to reasons out of both your control and the control of your lawyer, it is also possible that your case is taking too long to settle because of the incompetence of your lawyer. To be sure, you should seek a second opinion. During a second opinion, another lawyer can provide you with an objective review of your case. Ultimately, if you decide to do so, you can switch representation. In many cases – especially in cases where the lawyer is the problem – changing representation can lead to immediate progress. If you are interested in speaking to one of our lawyers for a free second opinion and potentially switching representation, do not hesitate to contact the experts at our law firm immediately.
