When will my case be ready to settle?

Generally, after you have fully recovered from your injuries or (in the case of more serious injuries) when you have completed treatment with your doctor and he or she has stated that you are as well as you are going to be or have reached a plateau in your recovery, (what is usually called “maximum medical improvement”) you should contact your attorney and let him/her know. At that point, your attorney will get the medical records from the doctor(s) with whom you treated, and will begin the process of settling your case.
