General Personal Injury FAQs — Raceland

• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Raceland?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “There’s insufficient evidence of impact severity.,” 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 Raceland allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like dental fractures. Don’t accept “We haven’t completed our medical review yet.” at face value.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses..” Can a Raceland personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like GuideOne Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a jury decision in favor of the plaintiff in 17th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Liberty Mutual) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a jogger with multiple rib fractures, 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 final trial award rendered by 17th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 2.19M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Raceland.
• ❓What should I do if Chubb says “You saw a chiropractor, not a medical doctor.” after my Raceland crash?
  Insurers like Chubb often use lines such as “You saw a chiropractor, not a medical doctor.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like loss of limb (amputation) can be life-changing. In Raceland, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a final trial award rendered by 17th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 907K.
