Tim Akpinar · Answer

I'm sorry for your accident. I hope you're okay. From your description, it sounds like the vehicle that hit you may have been identified - and without more details, it sounds like that would be the primary defendant. In terms of how long the process takes, it could depend on details not included here - liability, extent of injuries, other side's response, availability of coverage, uninsured/underinsured protection relevance, how quickly discovery progressed, backlog on trial calendar, etc. To file a lawsuit, that can be immediate. 
 
There is a lot to sort out here, including arranging medical treatment coverage, etc., and many of these elements are beyond the scope of a brief response in the format of this Q & A textbox here. Reach out to attorneys to discuss. Attorneys who handle such cases work on a contingency and most offer free initial consults. That will help you sort things out, outline your options, and identify what immediate steps you need to take to preserve your rights here. Good luck

There is alot to deal with here.  Cases like this can be done in a year or so, depending on treatment and cooperation.  There maybe Uninsured Motorist issues and identifying the Defendant.  IF it was a hit and run, did someone get the license plate and was it reported to the Police? 
 
Make an appointment with Counsel that handles these matters for more detailed information

Answer depends on several factors which we do not know. For example what are your injuries how much insurance does the other person have and how good of a lawyer do you have to fight for that money. I suggest that you set up one of the free in office consultation that most attorneys offer.
