General Personal Injury FAQs — Pasadena

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Pasadena allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like rib cage trauma with internal injury. Don’t accept “The provider overcharged for services.” at face value.
• ❓What should I do if Bluefire Insurance says “We haven’t received your bills yet.” after my Pasadena crash?
  Insurers like Bluefire Insurance often use lines such as “We haven’t received your bills yet.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like clavicle fracture can be life-changing. In Pasadena, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a pre-trial settlement in 151st Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 2.01M.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Infinity Property & Casualty) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a bicyclist injured on designated trail with plantar fascia rupture, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓An adjuster told me “You didn’t report the injury immediately..” Can a Pasadena personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “You didn’t report the injury immediately.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like USAA. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a compensation awarded during mediation process 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 pre-trial settlement in 151st Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 912K. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Pasadena.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Pasadena?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “The provider overcharged for services.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
