It’s crucial that you don’t talk to or settle with any insurance company without having a personal injury lawyer on your side. Insurance companies are known for offering low settlements to individuals who have been hurt, injured, or lost loved ones, and having a lawyer ensures your rights are protected.

At Mastrangelo Law Offices, we will review every aspect of your case for free to help determine its potential value. The worth of your case depends on factors such as the severity of the injury, medical expenses, missed time from work, the length of any physical disability, and the overall harm caused to you. Each case is unique, and we work to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

It depends on several factors, including the severity of the injury, how cooperative the insurance company is, whether the case goes to litigation, and how long it takes for you to recover. The location of the case, such as the county, can also impact the timeline.

While some cases may settle quickly, others may take longer to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
