General Personal Injury FAQs — Collinston

• ❓An adjuster told me “The medical records aren’t sufficient..” Can a Collinston personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “The medical records aren’t sufficient.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like MAPFRE Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a jury decision in favor of the plaintiff in 4th Judicial District Court 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 Collinston allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like retinal hemorrhage from head trauma. Don’t accept “The collision was too minor to cause injury.” at face value.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Mercury Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a child pedestrian with TMJ dysfunction from impact, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓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 award confirmed during arbitration. Our case histories include results such as 1.84M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Collinston.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Collinston?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “We believe the claim is inflated.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓What should I do if American Strategic Insurance says “We need more documentation.” after my Collinston crash?
  Insurers like American Strategic Insurance often use lines such as “We need more documentation.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like chemical burns to face or limbs can be life-changing. In Collinston, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a award confirmed during arbitration — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.73M.
