General Personal Injury FAQs — Chataignier

• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Chataignier?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “You didn’t follow doctor’s orders.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓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 award issued in civil trial at 13th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.95M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Chataignier.
• ❓An adjuster told me “You can’t prove emotional distress..” Can a Chataignier personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “You can’t prove emotional distress.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Amica Mutual. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a judge’s damages award following bench trial and pursue full compensation.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Chataignier allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like renal contusion or laceration. Don’t accept “You were partially at fault for the accident.” at face value.
• ❓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 passenger in rollover crash with multiple rib fractures, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓What should I do if Stillwater Insurance says “The collision was too minor to cause injury.” after my Chataignier crash?
  Insurers like Stillwater Insurance often use lines such as “The collision was too minor to cause injury.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like nerve root impingement can be life-changing. In Chataignier, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a jury award issued in civil trial at 13th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.85M.
