Factors Affecting Your Drunk Driving Accident Case


A lawsuit case period is different from one another due to many factors involved. Here are some that could speed up or prolong your case.

Recovery Period From Injuries

Insurance companies in Orange County will try to settle the case early and provide an amount that seems reasonable. Since the victim has not fully recovered yet, the actual amount couldn’t be determined. It is only until the completion of all medical treatments before the total amount can be finalized. The offered amount will not be sufficient enough to cover the costs of damages and medications.

Evidence

The stronger evidence that the victim has, it will be easier and faster to conclude the case. It is important to gather all important details and ensure that everything was recorded. It could be saved through a video or pictures.

Negotiations

Insurance companies in Orange County will collect pieces of evidence to use against your claim. They will offer less amount if the victim is asking for higher claims. This will lead to litigation and could be in a trial which takes more time than you want to.
