Determining the Agreement Process for Average Car Accident Settlement Arizona
As a car accident victim, you’ve probably got a ton of other questions like, how long will your claim take to be settled? Or how much will you get as a settlement payment after all the repairs, medical bills, and ongoing issues you might have now are all considered?
First, you’ll probably have filed a claim with the insurance company which immediately hands over your case to them. Depending on the severity of your accident, an insurance company will have to start an investigation and involve a legal attorney to help establish what happened and who is at fault.
This process can take anywhere between 6 months and 2 years- in some cases even longer- before your settlement will be processed. Once they have reached an agreed amount, your attorney will consult you on the settlement amount and explain how they agreed with the insurer.
From the moment you agree to the settlement, the insurance company will have a certain time to send the money to your account, which they will make clear to you. Typically that can be 5-7 working days once you’ve agreed on the amount before it reaches your bank account.
