Depends on where you are. But your emphasis on "very" is apt for
anywhere I've lived.

I disagree. Generally, both sides in a dispute want the dispute settled
rapidly and cheaply enough that an adverse decision won't risk their
standard of living.
How cheap is cheap enough? I'd say, say, 10% of the value of the claim.
Anything above that, the system's broken. Rapidly enough? Well, I can't
see why a typical case couldn't be resolved in ~6 weeks. It was in times
past.
