General Personal Injury FAQs — Westlake

• ❓What should I do if Farmers Insurance says “The medical records aren’t sufficient.” after my Westlake crash?
  Insurers like Farmers Insurance often use lines such as “The medical records aren’t sufficient.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like rotator cuff tear can be life-changing. In Westlake, 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 2.36M.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Westlake?
  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 notify us within the required time frame.,” we counter with consistent documentation so the insurer can’t weaponize normal scheduling gaps.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We’re still evaluating liability with our insured..” Can a Westlake personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We’re still evaluating liability with our insured.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Foremost Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a award confirmed during arbitration and pursue full compensation.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Allstate) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a driver struck by a commercial vehicle with compound fracture of the leg, 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 Westlake allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like brain herniation. Don’t accept “Your injury doesn’t meet our definition of serious.” 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 resolved through court-supervised mediation. Our case histories include results such as 2.43M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Westlake.
