General Personal Injury FAQs — Duncanville

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Duncanville allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like collapsed lung (pneumothorax). Don’t accept “There’s a question about your seatbelt use.” at face value.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Duncanville?
  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 statements from witnesses.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Allstate) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a victim of distracted driving crash with extensor tendon injury, 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 high-value verdict in 14th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 2.06M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Duncanville.
• ❓An adjuster told me “The photos you submitted aren’t clear..” Can a Duncanville personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “The photos you submitted aren’t clear.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Branch Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a case resolved through court-supervised mediation and pursue full compensation.
• ❓What should I do if Amica Mutual says “We don’t believe the vehicle speed contributed.” after my Duncanville crash?
  Insurers like Amica Mutual often use lines such as “We don’t believe the vehicle speed contributed.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like esophageal tear can be life-changing. In Duncanville, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a high-value verdict in 14th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.11M.
