General Personal Injury FAQs — Doolittle

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Doolittle allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like fractured radius or ulna. Don’t accept “You didn’t report the injury immediately.” at face value.
• ❓An adjuster told me “You’re not permanently impaired..” Can a Doolittle personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “You’re not permanently impaired.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Westfield Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a final trial award rendered by 370th Judicial District Court 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 case resolved through court-supervised mediation. Our case histories include results such as 1.44M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Doolittle.
• ❓What should I do if Liberty Mutual says “You didn’t go to the emergency room.” after my Doolittle crash?
  Insurers like Liberty Mutual often use lines such as “You didn’t go to the emergency room.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like loss of limb (amputation) can be life-changing. In Doolittle, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a case resolved through court-supervised mediation — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.17M.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., American Strategic Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a driver hit during lane change with Monteggia fracture, 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 Doolittle?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “We believe the claim is inflated.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
