General Personal Injury FAQs — Lake Worth

• ❓What should I do if National General says “The policyholder wasn’t clearly at fault.” after my Lake Worth crash?
  Insurers like National General often use lines such as “The policyholder wasn’t clearly at fault.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like avulsion fracture can be life-changing. In Lake Worth, we gather medical proof, challenge delay tactics, and, if needed, push for a judge’s damages award following bench trial — outcomes in our files include results up to 2.41M.
• ❓An adjuster told me “We don’t believe the vehicle speed contributed..” Can a Lake Worth personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “We don’t believe the vehicle speed contributed.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Shelter Insurance. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a six-figure settlement finalized in 396th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in Lake Worth?
  Not necessarily. Life, work, and delayed onset symptoms happen. We explain the timeline and connect you with appropriate providers. When adjusters say “We’re waiting on a supervisor’s approval.,” 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 judge’s damages award following bench trial. Our case histories include results such as 724K. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in Lake Worth.
• ❓The insurance company says my treatment wasn’t necessary — do I have options?
  Absolutely. Carriers (e.g., GEICO) often second-guess medical care to cut payouts. For clients such as a motorcyclist thrown from bike with liver laceration, 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 Lake Worth allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like extensor tendon injury. Don’t accept “We’re waiting on statements from witnesses.” at face value.
