General Personal Injury FAQs — Winfield

• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in Winfield allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like torn biceps tendon. Don’t accept “We don’t believe the treatment was necessary.” at face value.
• ❓What should I do if Mercury Insurance says “We can’t confirm that you were the driver.” after my Winfield crash?
  Insurers like Mercury Insurance often use lines such as “We can’t confirm that you were the driver.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like degenerative changes from trauma can be life-changing. In Winfield, 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 1.01M.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., Penn National Insurance) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a passenger struck in side-impact collision with median nerve compression injury, 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 Winfield?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “The vehicle damage was minor.,” 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 case resolved through court-supervised mediation. Our case histories include results such as 1.8M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Winfield.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We need an independent medical examination..” Can a Winfield personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We need an independent medical examination.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Patriot Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a damages awarded in settlement conference and pursue full compensation.
