General Personal Injury FAQs — Alexandria

• ❓An adjuster told me “You didn’t notify us within the required time frame..” Can a Alexandria personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “You didn’t notify us within the required time frame.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Auto-Owners Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a seven-figure award granted in 9th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Alexandria?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “Your injuries were pre-existing.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., MetLife Auto & Home) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a restaurant delivery driver with loss of vision from head trauma, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Alexandria allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like vascular injury with surgical repair. Don’t accept “You didn’t go to the emergency room.” at face value.
• ❓Do I have to take a low offer or can we fight for a better result?
  You never have to accept a lowball. We negotiate hard with insurers, and when needed we move toward a out-of-court settlement following litigation. Our case histories include results such as 2.37M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Alexandria.
• ❓What should I do if American Family Insurance says “Your injuries were pre-existing.” after my Alexandria crash?
  Insurers like American Family Insurance often use lines such as “Your injuries were pre-existing.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like disfiguring limb deformity can be life-changing. In Alexandria, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a out-of-court settlement following litigation — outcomes in our files include results up to 2.04M.
