General Personal Injury FAQs — San Angelo

• ❓An adjuster told me “The vehicle damage was minor..” Can a San Angelo 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 Westfield Insurance. 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 resolved through court-supervised mediation. Our case histories include results such as 1.84M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in San Angelo.
• ❓What should I do if MAPFRE Insurance says “You’re not permanently impaired.” after my San Angelo crash?
  Insurers like MAPFRE Insurance often use lines such as “You’re not permanently impaired.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like traumatic ear drum rupture can be life-changing. In San Angelo, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a case resolved through court-supervised mediation — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.39M.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in San Angelo?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “There’s a coverage issue we’re reviewing.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Safe Auto Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a motorcyclist with ulnar nerve entrapment from 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 San Angelo allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like rotational ankle fracture. Don’t accept “You’ve already reached maximum medical improvement.” at face value.
