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 clavicle fracture. Don’t accept “You didn’t provide a recorded statement.” at face value.
• ❓What should I do if The General says “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.” after my Bedford crash?
  Insurers like The General often use lines such as “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like cervical fracture can be life-changing. In Bedford, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a settlement approved in 48th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 907K.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We believe the claim is inflated..” Can a Bedford personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We believe the claim is inflated.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Safeco. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a judge’s damages award following bench trial and pursue full compensation.
• ❓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 settlement approved in 48th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.11M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Bedford.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Safe Auto Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a construction flagger hit on duty with carotid artery injury, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓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 “Your injury doesn’t meet our definition of serious.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
