About Law Offices of Gary Bruce

Prior injuries make a case more complicated. The law allows recovery when there is an aggravation or exacerbation of an underlying condition or old injury. The law also requires a defendant take an injured individual as they are – meaning that whether you play a professional sport or you a couch potato, the defendant has to deal with whatever harm was caused to you regardless of your health prior to the incident. So having a prior similar injury does not automatically mean you don’t have a case. In fact, the prior injury might have made you more vulnerable to your current suffering. However, prior similar injuries can also be used by an insurance company or defense attorney to argue that you are still suffering from the same old problem for which the defendant has no responsibility. Prior injuries can also make your medical records less clear or otherwise affect value of a case.
