I was in an accident in June of 2006; it was 100% the other persons fault. I did exactly as the adjuster told me, and did exactly what my doctors told me. In August of 2006 I rear ended a lady, (so lightly it didn't even scratch or dent her car) I told my doctor so that she would know. Now the adjuster is telling me (on the day when, I believe the statue of limitations is up) that they don't have to pay most of my medical bills because I told my doctor that I had a second accident. So my question if the second accident aggravated my injuries is this true?

They only owe for the injuries/treatment that are related to the 1st accident. Is the ongoing treatment after the 2nd accident related to the 1st? No way to know without reviewed all the medical notes.

The second accident only aggravated my injuries. I only told my MD because I if I started having any additional problems then it would be documented, but I didn't.

An injury is typcially ''worth'' more if it was 'caused' by an accident...than if a pre=existing injury is 'aggravated'' by an injury or accident...They at the least will owe you from June till the Aug. wreck...after the august accident will be the issue...had your treatment stopped or slowed, then picked up again after the Aug accident? Was there any change what so ever AFTER the August accident?
