Can a North Texas Work Injury Case Be Resolved in Less Than a Year?

February 20, 2025

One of the most common questions we receive from potential clients is: How long will it take to resolve my non-subscriber work injury case in North Texas? While the answer can vary, there are certain factors that can impact the timeline, especially regarding the recovery process and the nature of the case.

How Long Does It Take to Resolve a Non-Subscriber Work Injury Case in North Texas?

One of the most common questions we receive at Sandoval Armstrong, PLLC is:
“How long will it take to resolve my non-subscriber work injury case?”

While every case is unique, certain factors can impact the timeline — especially the severity of your injury, your recovery process, and whether your employer chooses to cooperate or contest the claim.

Typical Timeline for a Non-Subscriber Case in Texas

In North Texas, non-subscriber work injury cases vary in duration. If your injuries are minor and recovery is quick, your case could be resolved within a few months — particularly if pre-litigation negotiations go smoothly. More severe injuries, however, may require extended treatment, which could delay settlement until your recovery is clearly defined.

Here’s how the process typically works:

  1. Medical Recovery: Your case cannot be accurately evaluated until your doctors have a clear understanding of your recovery outlook.
  2. Pre-Litigation Negotiations: If liability is clear, a settlement could be reached without going to court.
  3. Litigation (If Needed): If a fair settlement can’t be reached, the case may proceed to litigation, which can take longer depending on the court’s schedule and complexity of the case.

Factors That Help Speed Up Your Case

Some cases can be resolved in less than a year, especially when these conditions are present:

  • Clear Employer Negligence: If it’s obvious that your employer failed to provide a safe work environment, liability can be established quickly.
  • You’ve Completed Medical Treatment: This makes it easier to calculate damages and negotiate a fair settlement.
  • Quick Recovery from Injury: Shorter treatment periods often lead to quicker case resolution.
  • No Ongoing Care Required: If your injury is fully healed, your case may move faster.

Time and Patience Lead to Stronger Outcomes

While quick resolutions are ideal, it’s crucial not to rush the process. Thorough investigation, legal strategy, and documentation are key to achieving the maximum compensation you’re entitled to. Rushing can lead to missed opportunities for recovery — physically and financially.

At Sandoval Armstrong, PLLC, we take the time to build a strong case on your behalf and present clear evidence showing how your employer’s negligence caused your injury. Whether negotiating with insurance companies or litigating in court, we fight for the best possible outcome.
