General Personal Injury FAQs — Westworth Village

• ❓What should I do if American Strategic Insurance says “The policyholder wasn’t clearly at fault.” after my Westworth Village crash?
  Insurers like American Strategic Insurance often use lines such as “The policyholder wasn’t clearly at fault.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like TMJ dysfunction from impact can be life-changing. In Westworth Village, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a award confirmed during arbitration — outcomes in our files include results up to 1.18M.
• ❓An adjuster told me “There’s a question about your seatbelt use..” Can a Westworth Village 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 CSAA Insurance Group. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a jury awarded damages in 526th Judicial District Court 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 award confirmed during arbitration. Our case histories include results such as 1.78M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Westworth Village.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Westworth Village allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like splenic rupture. Don’t accept “You waited too long to seek treatment.” at face value.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Westworth Village?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “The collision was too minor to cause injury.,” 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., NJM Insurance Group) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a construction flagger hit on duty with Lisfranc injury, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
