        "text": "The duration of a birth injury lawsuit can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of the injury, and whether a settlement is reached or the case goes to trial. Some cases may resolve within a year or two through negotiation, while others, particularly those requiring extensive expert testimony or court proceedings, can take several years. Your lawyer can provide a more specific timeline once they have evaluated your particular situation.",
