General Personal Injury FAQs — San Antonio

• ❓Will a gap in my medical care ruin my case in San Antonio?
  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.
• ❓An adjuster told me “There’s a coverage issue we’re reviewing..” Can a San Antonio personal injury lawyer still help?
  Yes. Adjusters regularly say “There’s a coverage issue we’re reviewing.,” even when liability and damages are strong. We document fault with police reports, witnesses, and experts, then negotiate with carriers like Liberty Mutual. If they won’t deal fairly, we prepare for a pre-trial settlement in 399th Judicial District Court and pursue full compensation.
• ❓How do I respond if the adjuster claims my injuries were pre-existing?
  Even if you had prior issues, the law in San Antonio allows recovery when a crash aggravates a condition. We show the before/after difference with records and expert testimony — critical for injuries like crush injuries requiring debridement. Don’t accept “There’s a question about your seatbelt use.” 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 award confirmed during arbitration. Our case histories include results such as 2.06M. The goal is simple: fair compensation for your losses in San Antonio.
• ❓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 electric scooter rider with traumatic brain swelling, we use treating-physician opinions, imaging, and billing audits to prove care was reasonable and related to the crash.
• ❓What should I do if Travelers says “You didn’t report the injury immediately.” after my San Antonio crash?
  Insurers like Travelers often use lines such as “You didn’t report the injury immediately.” to stall or minimize claims. Even injuries like jaw fracture (mandibular) can be life-changing. In San Antonio, 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 1.92M.
