General Personal Injury FAQs — Highland Park

• ❓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 multi-million dollar verdict from 282nd Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 996K. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Highland Park.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We haven’t received your bills yet..” Can a Highland Park personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We haven’t received your bills yet.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Horace Mann. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a compensation awarded during mediation process and pursue full compensation.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Branch Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a driver hit by uninsured motorist with pancreatic trauma, 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 degenerative changes from trauma. Don’t accept “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.” at face value.
• ❓What should I do if The General says “The treatment timeline doesn’t make sense.” after my Highland Park crash?
  Insurers like The General often use lines such as “The treatment timeline doesn’t make sense.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like posterior tibial tendon rupture can be life-changing. In Highland Park, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a multi-million dollar verdict from 282nd Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 881K.
• ❓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 can’t prove emotional distress.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
