How Long Does It Take to Resolve a Rideshare Accident Claim?
Question:
How long will a rideshare accident claim take?
Answer:
I was speaking to someone involved in a rideshare accident the other day, and one of the many questions they had was, ?How long does this process take?? I started asking them if they knew how much their medical bills were going to be, how much time from work they were going to be missing, and what their recovery would look like. They didn?t have these answers, nor did I expect them to. The reason why I mentioned these things is that this is the information that we need to know so that we can better understand how long this process is going to take.
You don?t heal in a short amount of time. Humans take time to get better. They need to go through the process and they need to listen to their doctors. These are the types of things that determine how long a claim takes. Once we have that information, we then need to deal with an insurance adjuster who?s been trying to delay this process the whole time. If they?re not going to make a fair offer to try to resolve this case, you might need to go into litigation. You need to understand that at the end of the day we?re going to try to resolve their claim as soon as possible; but, if it means having to go into litigation to do so, that would also delay the process.
