FAQ
Personal injury lawsuits—whether they are slip and fall or car accident cases—last anywhere from 6 months to several years. Ultimately, it depends on the specifics of the case.

In Texas, like many other states, this percentage might depend on several factors, including how complicated the case is and how much time the lawyer expects to spend on it.
