General Personal Injury FAQs — Lake Worth

• ❓An adjuster told me “The vehicle damage was minor..” Can a Lake Worth personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “The vehicle damage was minor.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Texas Farm Bureau. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a judge’s damages award following bench trial and pursue full compensation.
• ❓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 settled during mediation. Our case histories include results such as 2.0M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Lake Worth.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Lake Worth allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like traumatic arterial thrombosis. Don’t accept “We don’t believe the treatment was necessary.” at face value.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Amica Mutual) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a Lyft passenger with labral tear (shoulder), we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Lake Worth?
  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.
• ❓What should I do if Direct Auto Insurance says “There’s a gap in your medical care.” after my Lake Worth crash?
  Insurers like Direct Auto Insurance often use lines such as “There’s a gap in your medical care.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like spinal fusion surgery can be life-changing. In Lake Worth, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a case settled during mediation — outcomes in our files include results up to 677K.
