Do Injury Claims Always Go to Court?

Written by Tom Crosley
Legal Updates

People frequently ask how often injury claims actually go to court. In this video, Tom Crosley answers that question.

According to Tom, only a small percentage of claims end up going to court; the remaining majority are successfully settled before that point. Even among cases that do go to court, many of them end up being settled before the actual trial process starts. (A case can settle at any time, as long as both sides agree to the settlement terms.) Of course, there are certain cases that simply have to go to trial.

Only an experienced attorney has the expertise to guide you through the claims process, whether it ends in settlement or trial. Contact the Crosley Law Firm today for a free case evaluation if you or someone you know has been injured.
