In India, civil cases like yours can take a considerable amount of time, ranging from a few months to several years. Factors include the court's workload, the complexity of the case, and the availability of evidence and witnesses.
Have you considered sending a legal notice to the person first?

Sending a legal notice is often a good first step in such cases. It formally informs the other party of your intent to take legal action if they do not comply. This can sometimes prompt a resolution without going to court.

Mentioning that his family knows and is involved can be included if it’s relevant to the case. Definitely include your losses due to the non-timely repayment as it strengthens your claim. Here is a concise list of points to mention:
- Details of the loan agreement.
- Proof of his acknowledgment of the debt.
- Your losses due to delayed repayment.
- Any involvement of his family if pertinent.

what about if he just gave a verbal agreement? and I have no paperwork done?
In the absence of a written agreement, it may be more challenging to prove your case, but not impossible. Here are some points to consider:
- Collect all evidence: Any text messages, emails, or witnesses who can confirm the verbal agreement.
- Legal Notice: You can still send a legal notice detailing the verbal agreement and the evidence you have.
- Witnesses: If there are any, they can strengthen your case.
