From the time you give the firm all the paper work to get your surplus funds how long does that take?

What is the time frame that you give firm paperwork to get court date that starts the 60 grace period before funds released? Firm told me they needed it right away or my window to claim would go away. All paper work submitted in 3 days June 12th yet they did not get a date until July 23rd and then they told me the 60 period starts then. This firm I found out after is very slow to file paperwork..Should it of taken almost 6 weeks to get the start period of 60 days? Now he tells me he"Believes" I should have the money in 30 days since 60 days is today.
