General Personal Injury FAQs — Cooper

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Cooper allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like nerve graft or neurolysis procedure. Don’t accept “You didn’t provide a recorded statement.” at face value.
• ❓What should I do if GEICO says “There’s a question about your seatbelt use.” after my Cooper crash?
  Insurers like GEICO often use lines such as “There’s a question about your seatbelt use.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like avulsion fracture can be life-changing. In Cooper, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a pre-trial settlement in 8th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 2.17M.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Cooper?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “You didn’t see a specialist.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓An adjuster told me “Your injuries were pre-existing..” Can a Cooper personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “Your injuries were pre-existing.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Infinity Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a plaintiff verdict reached after closing arguments 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 pre-trial settlement in 8th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.67M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Cooper.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Wawanesa Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a storefront collision victim with traumatic brain swelling, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
