General Personal Injury FAQs — Santa Fe

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Santa Fe allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like Galeazzi fracture. Don’t accept “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.” at face value.
• ❓An adjuster told me “Your injury doesn’t meet our definition of serious..” Can a Santa Fe 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 Hartford. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a settlement reached before trial in 122nd Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Santa Fe?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “There are inconsistencies in your account.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓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 jury decision in favor of the plaintiff in 122nd Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.66M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Santa Fe.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Infinity Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a agriculture worker hit by machinery with ACL/MCL tear, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓What should I do if Esurance says “We can’t verify your medical provider’s credentials.” after my Santa Fe crash?
  Insurers like Esurance often use lines such as “We can’t verify your medical provider’s credentials.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like tethered spinal cord syndrome can be life-changing. In Santa Fe, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a jury decision in favor of the plaintiff in 122nd Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.96M.
