How Long Do Car Accident Settlements Take?
Timelines vary. Some claims resolve in months; serious-injury or disputed-liability cases may take longer. Factors include:
- Severity of injuries and length of medical treatment
- Disputes over fault (liability)
- Insurer cooperation
- Whether litigation or trial is necessary
- Court schedules and backlogs
From start to finish, we provide clear communication, explain your options, and keep you informed at every step.
What to Do After a Car Accident in Anaheim
- Get Medical Attention – Seek care immediately, even if injuries seem minor.
- Document the Scene – Photograph vehicles, the intersection/roadway, skid marks, traffic signs, and collect witness info.
- Contact Our Firm – Speak with an attorney before talking to insurers; they may pressure you to settle quickly.
- Act Quickly – California has strict deadlines. Delays can risk losing crucial evidence like traffic-cam footage from Katella Ave., Harbor Blvd., or near ARTIC.
Statute of Limitations
In California, you generally have two years from the date of injury to file a personal-injury claim. Shorter deadlines can apply to claims involving a government entity (e.g., dangerous roadway conditions). Because key evidence can disappear quickly, contact an Anaheim car accident lawyer as soon as possible.
