General Personal Injury FAQs — Bedford

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Bedford 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 “The damage doesn’t match your account of the crash.” at face value.
• ❓An adjuster told me “You didn’t go to the emergency room..” Can a Bedford personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “You didn’t go to the emergency room.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Erie Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a jury awarded damages in 348th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓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 driver hit by uninsured motorist with sacroiliac joint disruption, 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 seven-figure award granted in 348th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 2.43M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Bedford.
• ❓What should I do if Elephant Insurance says “We don’t believe the treatment was necessary.” after my Bedford crash?
  Insurers like Elephant Insurance often use lines such as “We don’t believe the treatment was necessary.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like burst vertebral fracture can be life-changing. In Bedford, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a seven-figure award granted in 348th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 745K.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Bedford?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “We’re waiting on a supervisor’s approval.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
