What is the Statute of Limitations on Injury Claims
When a person is injured unexpectedly, it can lead to devastating losses, including expensive medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress. In order to recover for these losses (or damages), a personal injury claim must be brought against the at-fault party’s insurance company. Unfortunately, insurance companies are focused on their bottom line, not on providing fair settlements. Insurance adjusters are often trained to offer low-ball settlements that do not account for future medical bills, ongoing lost wages, and pain and suffering. Without the help of an experienced personal injury attorney who knows insurance industry tactics, personal injury lawsuit steps and important legal procedures and deadlines, such as what is the statute of limitations on injury claims, it is very challenging to negotiate a fair settlement.

How Long Do Lawsuit Settlements Take for Personal Injury Cases?
If you’ve been injured because of the willful or negligent actions of another, a personal injury claim is your best bet for seeking justice through a personal injury settlement. One thing to keep in mind is that you will need to be patient when dealing with a personal injury claim as there are several personal injury lawsuit steps. How long do lawsuit settlements take depends on a variety of factors. In almost all cases we take on, our personal injury lawyers are able to reach a settlement without going to trial, but even settling outside of court typically requires one to two years. Among other work, this time is used to review relevant insurance policies to determine policy limits and types of coverage available, and to gather evidence and interview experts to build a strong case that can be used to negotiate with the at-fault insurance provider.

“We were hit by a drunk driver on the highway between Ferndale and Bellingham. Unfortunately, the driver did not have insurance so we have to use our under-insured motorist insurance. We hired Tario and Associates to help us with the claim process. Our experience had been great from the beginning to the end. Michael Tario is professional with years of experience. His team was caring, patient, attentive, and followed my medical and chiropractic treatments with great details.
Michael went the extra mile (with amazing knowledge and skills) in fighting us a settlement which was nearly 150% over the original settlement amount offered by the insurance company. I called him our “miracle lawyer!”
Michael and his team definitely deserve a five-star review and I have already recommended them to other people with legal needs.” – Teresa Chan
