General Personal Injury FAQs — Bossier City

• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Bossier City?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “There are inconsistencies in your account.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Bossier City allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like elbow dislocation with fracture. Don’t accept “We don’t believe the vehicle speed contributed.” at face value.
• ❓An adjuster told me “You’re not permanently impaired..” Can a Bossier City personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “You’re not permanently impaired.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Wawanesa Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a judge’s damages award following bench trial and pursue full compensation.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Travelers) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a restaurant delivery driver with traumatic aneurysm, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓What should I do if MetLife Auto & Home says “You didn’t go to the emergency room.” after my Bossier City crash?
  Insurers like MetLife Auto & Home often use lines such as “You didn’t go to the emergency room.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like proximal humerus fracture can be life-changing. In Bossier City, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a pre-trial settlement in 26th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 2.02M.
• ❓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 pre-trial settlement in 26th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.95M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Bossier City.
