Request your free consultationThe phrase “personal injury” refers to various types of injury affecting a person’s body, reputation, or emotions. The legal system addresses these cases by tort law in the legal system – designed to protect individuals who are harmed or injured due to the actions (or failure to act) of another person or organization.
The design of a personal injury case is to help you access available compensation from the person at fault. Thus, we help you build a case to establish who is at fault for your injuries. Typically, you can file personal injury claims on one of these grounds: negligence, liability, or intentional wrongs.

When your personal injury attorney helps you achieve a successful outcome for your case, you will receivemonetary compensation for the injuries. The purpose of this payout is to compensate personal injury victims for their losses.
Not only is compensation available to cover medical bills, but you can often receive funds to reimburse lost wages, travel expenses, and more. In addition, other forms of personal injury compensation are usually available for household assistance, emotional and mental distress, and pain and suffering.
It’s difficult to determine the exact timeframe it will take to settle your personal injury claim. When the medical bills are piling up, it’s common for victims to ask about the anticipated completion of their case. Injury settlements can take weeks or years, depending on the extent of your injuries and factors contributing to the case. Most cases take between 1 to 3 years to reach a verdict.
Some of the most common factors that affect the timing of your case include:
The statute of limitations determines the length of time you have to file a claim after an injury occurs. Therefore, acting right away helps you avoid missing your opportunity for financial compensation.
The best way to speed up the process is by engaging the services of a personal injury attorney as soon as possible. Then, we’ll begin the initial paperwork, notify the other party of the pending claim, and work through court motions as needed.
Case research and discovery can take anywhere from 6 months to a year or more. Of course, if the case goes to trial, then it will extend the timeline. Sometimes, it can be as long as 1 to 2 years for the court to determine a verdict.
Our experienced team at AMA Law has a streamlined system to address the most critical steps in your personal injury case. When you hire our team, we provide a full-service approach that includes:
It’s essential to notify the defendant of the complaint and file the court paperwork. A summons notifies the other party they are being sued, a complaint outlines the facts of the case and why the defendant is liable.
During the discovery process, we gather evidence, dig up facts, and investigate circumstances surrounding the event. Discovery includes medical records, police reports, business documentation, security footage, and anything else.
When discovery is complete, we attempt a settlement through mediation, negotiation, or arbitration. If we can’t reach a reasonable settlement with the other party, it might be time to file a lawsuit.
When the other party isn’t willing to negotiate a settlement, we move forward with legal action. Sometimes, the lawsuit is filed sooner because of the timeline for your statute of limitations. If the case goes to court, then we follow through with full-service trial support.
Finally, when the case is successful, the collection process begins so you can receive the determined amount of compensation. You may receive this money as a lump sum or broken into payments.
