General Personal Injury FAQs — Valley View

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Valley View allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like dislocated patella. Don’t accept “You didn’t follow doctor’s orders.” at face value.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses..” Can a Valley View personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Erie Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a out-of-court settlement following litigation and pursue full compensation.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., National General) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a driver rear-ended at red light with fractured radius or ulna, 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 Valley View?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “We don’t believe the treatment was necessary.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓What should I do if Foremost Insurance says “There’s a question about your seatbelt use.” after my Valley View crash?
  Insurers like Foremost Insurance often use lines such as “There’s a question about your seatbelt use.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like pancreatic trauma can be life-changing. In Valley View, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a jury decision in favor of the plaintiff in 235th Judicial District Court — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.32M.
• ❓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 235th Judicial District Court. Our case histories include results such as 1.22M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Valley View.
