The Importance of a Prompt Settlement
What is the period of time for Seneca to pay for a truck accident involving Seneca insurance? How much time does Seneca take to make payment on a truck accident case? Why are these questions important for the victim of truck accidents? There are some things that only the victims of traumatic truck accidents could understand because they have been forced to live through them.
For instance, truck accidents often result in expensive medical bills, expensive property damage, the loss of income, and many other types of harm. Victims and their families are often left struggling with their bills. The loss of income, whether permanent or temporary, can make it difficult for victims and their families to keep up with sudden expenses and normal living expenses alike. In the case of fatal injuries, funeral and burial costs could result in entire families suffering financial stress.
Regardless of the details of your situation, a settlement represents peace of mind—knowing that your financial troubles will soon come to an end. Although a settlement cannot reverse the harm that you suffered, it could help ease the financial burden created by the truck accident. At Normandie Law Firm, our truck accident lawyers have a thorough understanding of what you and your family are going through. Therefore, they are dedicated to always fighting to help you recover the compensation that you deserve.
The Average Time to Reach a Settlement
What is the average amount of time for Seneca to settle a truck accident lawsuit? How long is the amount of time it takes for Seneca insurance to pay on an 18 wheeler accident case? Usually, the average time it takes Seneca to settle a truck accident lawsuit is difficult to establish. How long it takes Seneca to pay on a truck accident case lawsuit depends on the specific details of the truck accident claim. Therefore, averages frequently misrepresent the duration claims could take to settle.
In general, truck accident claims could reach a settlement within 2 years. Rarely, truck accident claims take longer than 2 years to settle. The truck accident claims that take more than 2 years to settle are usually claims that include extreme circumstances and a number of complications throughout the legal process. On the contrary, truck accident claims with little to no complications could reach settlements within a few months—generally in less than 18 months.
How long do truck accident cases with Seneca take to settle? Whether it takes your claim a few months or a few years to settle, you could trust that the truck accident lawyers at Normandie Law Firm will always do everything within their reach to help your truck accident claim within a reasonable length of time. For more information about how long a truck accident lawsuit takes to reach a settlement, contact our law firm as soon as possible.
The Settlement Process
How long does it take Seneca to pay a truck accident claim? The amount of time it takes Seneca to settle a truck accident case depends on the details of the truck accident. The same details of your truck accident claim could also affect the legal process—or the process of reaching a settlement. The legal process consists of many steps, all of which are essential for settling a claim.
Consider the following steps:
- Your attorney evaluates your truck accident claim.
- Your attorney creates a demand package for your claim.
- Your attorney sends the demand package to the insurance company (Seneca insurance).
- Seneca receives and reviews the demand package.
- Seneca investigates your truck accident claim.
- Seneca responds to the demand with a decision/settlement offer.
- Your attorney addresses the response (makes a counteroffer if the initial offer is too low).
- Your attorney and the insurance company negotiate until a final settlement is reached.
- Seneca sends a settlement release form.
- You sign the settlement release and return it to the insurance company.
- Seneca sends the settlement check to your attorney.
- Your attorney calculates and deducts all legal expenses from your settlement check.
- Your attorney makes your portion of the settlement check available to you.
As you can see, there are many steps of the legal process. Because there are so many steps toward reaching a settlement, there are also many opportunities for the legal process to be delayed. In general, claims with more complications and difficulties during the legal process result in longer waits for settlements—if your claim is complex, your case will take longer to settle.

The Need for an Attorney
Do you need the legal assistance of an attorney for your truck accident claim? In many cases, victims of personal injury accidents believe that they do not need legal assistance. In fact, many claims could reach successful outcomes without the need for legal assistance. However, many other claims absolutely require legal assistance—especially claims for traumatic truck accidents that result in severe or fatal injuries.
Often, truck accident claims that lack legal representation are not taken seriously by insurance companies. Insurance companies deny claims—knowing that unrepresented claimants are unlikely to appeal decisions. Insurance companies might also unnecessarily prolong the claim process with the goal of getting the claimant to stop pursuing the claim. When you hire an attorney, you will have someone relentlessly fighting for your claim and for your right to reach a settlement. For more information about how hiring a lawyer could benefit you and your claim, do not hesitate to contact our law firm as soon as possible.
