Answer:

 One of the questions that new clients typically ask is how long a wrongful death case will take. The answer here in Orlando is it depends. There are a lot of factors that go into this. How long are the courts themselves setting the case out for trial? Typically, that can be 12 to 18 months from the date that a trial is requested. In the hands of an experienced and knowledgeable trial lawyer, however, many insurance companies decide to be fair and reasonable in the first few months after a wrongful death, rather than going all the way to trial. If that is the case, these cases can typically be resolved in six to twelve months.

The simple answer is it depends on the specific facts in dealing with your wrongful death case. If you have lost a loved one, please contact us. We’re here to help.
