General Personal Injury FAQs — Hollywood Park

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Hollywood Park allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like chronic pain syndrome from crash. Don’t accept “The treatment timeline doesn’t make sense.” at face value.
• ❓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 settlement secured after expert testimony in 144th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 2.03M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Hollywood Park.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Hollywood 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 notify us within the required time frame.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓What should I do if Safeco says “You were partially at fault for the accident.” after my Hollywood Park crash?
  Insurers like Safeco often use lines such as “You were partially at fault for the accident.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like internal bleeding (abdominal) can be life-changing. In Hollywood Park, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a settlement secured after expert testimony in 144th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 2.08M.
• ❓An adjuster told me “Your injury doesn’t meet our definition of serious..” Can a Hollywood Park personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “Your injury doesn’t meet our definition of serious.,” 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 case resolved during jury deliberation and pursue full compensation.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Bristol West Insurance Group) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a child injured in daycare van crash with midfoot dislocation, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
