Following a motorcycle accident, you are likely eager to fight for the compensation you may be eligible for under the law. As you begin taking the steps to protect your rights and pursue compensation, you may wonder how long you can expect the process to take. At HGSK Law Firm, we can provide valuable insight into the specifics of your case and what you can expect regarding a potential resolution timeline.
Every accident claim and case is different. However, certain aspects of a case influence how quickly you can reach a resolution or settlement. The process of a motorcycle accident case begins with the filing of a claim.
Negotiation and Settlement of a Motorcycle Accident Claim
Fortunately, not all motorcycle accident claims lead to a lawsuit. After an attorney files a claim with the insurance company, a settlement agreement is expected to be reached following negotiations. Your lawyer can protect your interests and fight for the maximum compensation possible in the negotiation process. If the insurer presents a reasonable offer and accounts for your losses reasonably, you may accept the offer based on the recommendation and advice of your attorney. Reaching a settlement agreement in a claim can avoid the need to go to court and through a trial.
Settlements, however, are only sometimes possible during the claims process. Depending on the facts of a case and the amount of damages at stake, an agreement may only be possible amongst some parties. When this occurs, a claim may need to proceed to a trial for resolution, at which point the court can decide the lawsuit’s outcome. At HGSK Law Firm, we can help you understand the intricacies of your case and whether a lawsuit may become necessary as you move through the process following a motorcycle accident.
Filing a Motorcycle Accident Claim
The filing of a claim is complex and requires significant preparation to ensure you seek the maximum compensation available and present the best evidence to support your motorcycle accident claim.
