When you’re dealing with the aftermath of a car wreck in Texas, the question on your mind is likely: “How long will it take for my case to settle?” At Herrman & Herrman, Personal Injury Lawyers, we understand the urgency of this question—and more importantly, we have the expertise to guide you through the process efficiently and effectively.
On average, personal injury cases take 6 to 8 months from the time of the accident to the moment you receive your settlement check. However, it’s important to keep in mind that every case is unique, and many factors can influence the timeline. The severity of your injuries, the complexity of the accident, whether fault is contested, or the pace of your medical treatment and recovery all play a role in determining how long the process will take.
Here’s why working with Herrman & Herrman can make all the difference in getting you the best possible outcome, as quickly as possible:
- Thorough Investigation and Case Preparation
From the moment you contact us, we begin gathering all the necessary evidence to build a strong case. This includes medical records, accident reports, eyewitness testimony, and expert opinions. We understand that gathering this evidence early on helps avoid delays and sets the foundation for a strong, efficient case. - Skilled Negotiation with Insurance Companies
One of the biggest factors influencing how long a case takes is dealing with insurance companies. At Herrman & Herrman, we are seasoned negotiators with years of experience handling tough insurance claims. We’ll fight for you and won’t let insurance companies pressure you into a lowball offer. Our goal is to secure a settlement that truly reflects the full extent of your damages, which can speed up the process and avoid prolonged litigation. - Prioritizing Your Medical Recovery
Your health comes first. That’s why we won’t push for a settlement until all of your medical treatment needs are addressed. Whether your treatment involves chiropractic care, surgery, or long-term rehabilitation, we make sure that your recovery plan is fully in place before we start negotiating. This ensures your treatment is complete and your settlement fully accounts for current and future medical costs. - Litigation Expertise When Needed
While most cases settle out of court, sometimes filing a lawsuit is necessary. If the insurance company is being difficult or if liability is disputed, we are ready to fight for your rights in the courtroom. While this may extend the timeline, our experienced litigators will handle the process with skill and determination, ensuring that you have strong representation every step of the way.
The good news? We’re committed to working quickly without sacrificing the quality of your case. Our team at Herrman & Herrman will keep you informed and involved, so you always know exactly where your case stands.

Whether your treatment involves chiropractic care, physical therapy, or major surgery, our firm ensures that your medical needs are fully met before we consider settlement options. We don’t believe in rushing a settlement that doesn’t fully account for all of your medical expenses or future treatment needs. That’s why we take the time to work closely with your healthcare providers, ensuring we have a complete and up-to-date understanding of your condition. We’ll help you obtain the necessary medical records to back up your claims, making sure that nothing is overlooked. In the event you need long-term care, we’ll ensure that the compensation we fight for takes into account all future medical expenses, ensuring that you can continue to heal without worrying about your financial future.
