When you file your personal injury claim in a court, the claim must be backed by medical evidence. Your medical report from your doctor will play an important role. The duration of the case has more to do with the medical process rather than the legal process. Generally the process can take up to two years and more depending on the nature of the injuries and the healing process. Throughout the entire process, your doctor will play an important role. Your doctor will be routinely asked to produce copies of their clinical notes and records. Your doctor and your attorney must be able to work in tandem. Some attorneys have a list of doctors whom they are more comfortable working with.
Most big damages lawsuits are settled outside of court and even prior to the beginning of courtroom proceedings. Those that go to trial in court are either heard by a judge or a jury to make a legal decision on the fault and extent of damages. In some cases, the judge determines the amount of money to be awarded to the plaintiff, in others, the jury makes the decision. If it goes to trial, it might require expert witnesses to give testimonies in support of your claim. Most attorneys have working relations with expert witnesses who can give testimony in support of your claim. A big damages lawsuit may result in an award that numbers well into millions of dollars.
