Each claim is different, so it’s not possible to say exactly how long the process will take.
The main things that affect how long a claim may take are:
- the type of assessment report the claimant chooses
- the resolution process the claimant decides to follow
- how willing and/or how available other parties are to take part in negotiation, mediation or adjudication.
Also, the law requires some steps in the process to take a set period of time, to make sure all parties are treated fairly.
