General Personal Injury FAQs — Highland Park

• ❓An adjuster told me “You didn’t go to the emergency room..” Can a Highland Park 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 Auto-Owners Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a final trial award rendered by 291st 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 see a specialist.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓What should I do if Bristol West says “Our evaluation doesn’t match your claim.” after my Highland Park crash?
  Insurers like Bristol West often use lines such as “Our evaluation doesn’t match your claim.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like lumbar disc replacement can be life-changing. In Highland Park, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a case resolved during jury deliberation — outcomes in our files include results up to 2.26M.
• ❓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 tongue laceration and avulsion. Don’t accept “We can’t verify your medical provider’s credentials.” at face value.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., GEICO) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a warehouse worker injured by delivery truck with meniscus tear, 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 case resolved during jury deliberation. Our case histories include results such as 1.83M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Highland Park.
