Question:
How long does it take to settle a nursing home negligence claim?
Answer:
People considering a nursing home abuse claim often ask how long the claim will take. And while we’d love to give them a quick answer, it would be a disservice to guess, because that’s all a quick answer will be.
You never know at the outset how long a nursing home abuse case is going to take to resolve. If any lawyer tells you a timeframe up-front before even getting into the facts of the case, you better start looking for another lawyer.
The facts of the case will be revealed during the investigation and establishment of damages. If it turns out to be a clear liability case, it’s going to be much easier to resolve in a short amount of time. If it’s a complex issue, however, you’re going to need experts to support your claim and the case will take longer.
Any time you need to bring in experts, you can expect the nursing home to hire their own experts as well. Sometimes those experts can be located across the country, and depositions need to be taken. The more complex a case gets, the more time it takes.
The truthful answer to the question of nursing home abuse claim timeline is that it depends. It may take a short amount of time, or it may take long time to resolve your claim, depending on the facts of the case.
