General Personal Injury FAQs — Bunkie

• ❓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 jury awarded damages in 12th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.53M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Bunkie.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Direct Auto Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a bystander injured during vehicle crash with chronic pain syndrome from crash, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓An adjuster told me “The at-fault driver’s policy may be void..” Can a Bunkie personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “The at-fault driver’s policy may be void.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Safe Auto Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a settlement reached post-verdict in 12th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Bunkie?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “The medical records aren’t sufficient.,” 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 Bunkie allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like complex hand laceration with tendon damage. Don’t accept “We’re still evaluating liability with our insured.” at face value.
• ❓What should I do if Branch Insurance says “We can’t verify your medical provider’s credentials.” after my Bunkie crash?
  Insurers like Branch Insurance often use lines such as “We can’t verify your medical provider’s credentials.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like crushed limb requiring surgery can be life-changing. In Bunkie, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a jury awarded damages in 12th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 833K.
