There is no sure answer to this question. Since Florida law does not include any absolute time limit on lawsuits, some cases move slowly while others are resolved relatively quickly. Most personal injury cases are settled out of court, sometimes after a lawsuit has already been filed.
In general, the more money you demand, the longer it is likely to take to receive compensation. Another factor is the complexity of your case. For example, a car accident lawsuit against a driver arrested for DUI at the scene of the accident is likely to be resolved more quickly than a manufacturing defect lawsuit involving complex technical issues.
Generally speaking, you should expect to wait anywhere from several months to several years before receiving compensation.
