How Much Time Does It Take to Settle My Broken Bone Case?

There is nothing good about being an injury victim. In these cases, you suffer harm because someone else made a poor choice or acted negligently and caused you and possibly others to suffer injuries. But the struggles of an injury victim can be multiplied when they suffer broken bones because the time for broken bones to heal can range from weeks to many months. The most common treatment to promote proper healing of broken bones is to immobilize the area with a cast or brace of some type. This treatment leaves many broken bone victims with mobility issues and limitations that can drag on for what feels like an eternity.

Equally as upsetting as the pain and treatment issues are the cost of medical care and the possible lost income if you cannot do your job while wearing a cast or brace. An otherwise able-bodied person can suddenly become dependent on others for help with everything from grocery shopping and preparing meals to bathing and other routine daily activities. This only adds to the victim’s stress and worry about ending up deep in debt because of the negligent actions of someone else.

What Is The Time Limit To File My Broken Bone Injury Lawsuit?
As a personal injury victim, you should understand that in most cases, you have two years from the date of the injury incident to file a case with the court. The time limit is called the Statute of Limitations, and it is strictly enforced. Once the time limit has expired, you will no longer have the right to seek compensation for your losses and expenses via a lawsuit. The common exception to this rule is when the responsible party is a government entity or agency, such as the city or state. In this instance, the victim is given only six months from the date of the injuries to file a lawsuit.

The overall time to resolve any personal injury lawsuit will vary based on many factors, including:

• The severity of their injuries and prognosis
• The actions of the other parties involved in the case
• The level of expertise of the legal team handling the personal injury lawsuit
• The complexity of the incident or accident that caused the harm

While some of these factors are beyond your control, such as the time required to heal and the actions of others involved in the case, you can control the legal team you select to represent you. At Kenmore Law Group, we are proud to be known for our swift resolution of personal injury cases. We understand the need for closure and compensation for our clients and want to provide them with the resources needed to overcome the challenges of their injuries as quickly as the law will allow.

The Incidents That Often Result In Broken Bones
With 206 bones in the adult human body, there are many incidents that can harm or break one or more of them. Incidents that involve significant impact or the most likely to cause bone breaks and fractures, such as these unfortunate incidents:

• Slip and falls
• Trip and falls
• Bike versus vehicle incidents
• Pedestrian versus vehicle incidents
• Vehicle crashes
• Injuries caused by a falling object
• Direct blows to the body, such as a punch or kind while involved in a physical altercation or incident of abuse
• Compression or crushing incidents

Many think that the most common bones to be broken are in the hands and feet because of their range of motion and use. However, the collarbone and ribs are more frequently broken and also result in the most painful injuries compared to other bone breaks; these injuries can prove to be challenging to treat as well because they are nearly impossible to immobilize. Other commonly broken bones include:

• Ankle
• Arm
• Wrist
• Hip
• Leg
• Nose
• Toe
• Spine
• Tailbone

The hardship created by a broken bone is often due in equal parts to the pain of the injury and the need to lug around a heavy cast that keeps the broken bone stable as it knits and heals. The time needed to complete the healing process will vary based on the victim’s overall health, other medical conditions or preexisting illnesses, age, and even whether or not they smoke, as that can decrease the speed of healing.

The most vital step any broken bone injury victim can take is seeking immediate medical care to evaluate an injury that could involve a broken bone, Fast treatment is essential in a fast recovery, Without proper care, the bone damage can worsen and require more time to heal or even surgical procedures to repair the damage. Once you have gotten the medical treatment needed for your broken bone injuries, please reach out to Kenmore Law Group to discuss your incident and ability to file a broken bone injury lawsuit to secure compensation for your losses and expenses.

Who Could Be Accountable For My Broken Bone Injuries?
The details of the injury incident will have a massive impact on the process of determining whom to hold responsible for your broken bone injuries. In incidents that involve vehicles, the party often held responsible is the driver who caused the accident. However, other parties can be liable if they were the owner of a nearby property where the traffic signs were obscured by an overgrown landscape or even the city if damage to the street caused or contributed to the cause of the accident.

Cases involving a slip and fall, trip and fall, or injury from a falling object typically are the result of negligence on the part of the property owner. According to premises liability law, all private and public property owners are legally obligated to maintain the spaces in a safe and hazard-free manner. If the owner or their staff fail to meet the basic guidelines for maintenance, the owner of the property can be held liable for any harm caused to a guest due to that negligence.
