General Personal Injury FAQs — Hewitt

• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Hewitt?
  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 report the injury immediately.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓What should I do if Esurance says “You didn’t miss enough work to qualify for compensation.” after my Hewitt crash?
  Insurers like Esurance often use lines such as “You didn’t miss enough work to qualify for compensation.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like paralysis (partial or complete) can be life-changing. In Hewitt, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a plaintiff verdict reached after closing arguments — outcomes in our files include results up to 782K.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Hewitt allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like skin grafts after injury. Don’t accept “You returned to work too quickly to justify lost wages.” at face value.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Western National Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a motorcyclist thrown from bike with repetitive orthopedic surgeries post-crash, 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 plaintiff verdict reached after closing arguments. Our case histories include results such as 691K. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Hewitt.
• ❓An adjuster told me “You didn’t go to the emergency room..” Can a Hewitt 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 The General. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a jury awarded damages in 54th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
