Fort Lee Pre-Existing Medical Condition Claims Attorneys

Aggravation of Previous Injuries or Conditions

If a health problem gets worse or an old injury flares up after an accident, some insurance companies will try to reject the entire claim as a "pre-existing condition." The attorneys of Jae Lee Law will not let insurers get away with this tactic.

Aggravation of a pre-existing condition is compensable under the law if the negligence of others caused your accident. Do not let an insurance company talk you out of your rights. Discuss your case with proven Fort Lee disability settlement lawyer Jae E. Lee.

Contact our law firm online or by telephone at 888-873-9896 to speak with an experienced New Jersey accident and insurance litigation attorney.

Hackensack and Bergen County Pre-Existing Conditions Attorneys

You can still bring a claim even if you had a pre-existing medical condition at the time of your car accident, slip and fall, or other injury. Accident claims cannot be denied solely on that basis. This includes liability claims against the negligent party's insurance as well as PIP claims against your own no-fault insurance.

Trauma from a car accident or falling accident often exacerbates prior injuries or existing medical conditions. We have helped clients obtain personal injury compensation for aggravation of many conditions such as:

  • Degenerative disk disease
  • Herniated disk
  • Lower back strain
  • Hernia
  • Knee or shoulder injury
  • Previously broken bones
  • Fibromyalgia or arthritis
  • Prior brain injury or concussion

You Have Rights Even With a Pre-Existing Medical Condition

The insurance company may argue that it should not be on the hook for a previous injury or condition. Our job is to prove that the accident aggravated the pre-existing condition and that you would not be disabled, in pain or requiring surgery if not for the accident. We can bring in top medical experts and accident specialists to prove the causal relationship if necessary.

For a free initial consultation with an experienced Paramus and Teaneck disability settlement lawyers, contact us today online or by telephone at 888-873-9896. We take cases on a contingency fee basis, so you do not pay anything unless we win compensation for you.
