General Personal Injury FAQs — Slaton

• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Slaton?
  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 follow doctor’s orders.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Slaton allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like internal bleeding (abdominal). Don’t accept “You can’t prove emotional distress.” 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 case settled during mediation. Our case histories include results such as 1.22M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Slaton.
• ❓An adjuster told me “There’s a question about your seatbelt use..” Can a Slaton personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “There’s a question about your seatbelt use.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Unitrin Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a case settled during mediation and pursue full compensation.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Mercury Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a child injured in daycare van crash with radial head fracture, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓What should I do if Western National Insurance says “We have to confirm if your policy was active.” after my Slaton crash?
  Insurers like Western National Insurance often use lines such as “We have to confirm if your policy was active.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like ACL/MCL tear can be life-changing. In Slaton, 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 951K.
