General Personal Injury FAQs — Jean Lafitte

• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Jean Lafitte?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “The provider overcharged for services.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We’re still investigating liability..” Can a Jean Lafitte personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We’re still investigating liability.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like California Casualty. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a case settled during mediation 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 Jean Lafitte allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like fractured femur. Don’t accept “You didn’t provide a recorded statement.” 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 seven-figure award granted in 24th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 758K. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Jean Lafitte.
• ❓What should I do if American Strategic Insurance says “The at-fault driver’s policy may be void.” after my Jean Lafitte crash?
  Insurers like American Strategic Insurance often use lines such as “The at-fault driver’s policy may be void.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like liver laceration can be life-changing. In Jean Lafitte, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a seven-figure award granted in 24th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.4M.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Shelter Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a agriculture worker hit by machinery with tethered spinal cord syndrome, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
