General Personal Injury FAQs — Highland Park

• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Homesite Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a driver hit during lane change with proximal humerus fracture, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Highland Park allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like midfoot dislocation. Don’t accept “You didn’t go to the emergency room.” at face value.
• ❓An adjuster told me “The medical records aren’t sufficient..” Can a Highland Park personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “The medical records aren’t sufficient.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like National General. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a jury award issued in civil trial at 193rd Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Highland Park?
  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 miss enough work to qualify for compensation.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓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 193rd Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.11M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Highland Park.
• ❓What should I do if Allstate says “We haven’t completed our medical review yet.” after my Highland Park crash?
  Insurers like Allstate often use lines such as “We haven’t completed our medical review yet.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like tethered spinal cord syndrome can be life-changing. In Highland Park, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a pre-trial settlement in 193rd Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 831K.
