Question:
If I have a pre-existing condition will that impact my case?
Answer:
We were talking to somebody the other day that asked whether the fact that they had a preexisting condition would affect their personal injury case. A lot of people think that if they have a preexisting condition, that’s going to hurt their personal injury case. It can help in some situations. The fact that you have a preexisting condition can set the stage for how it is that you were injured in this incident so significantly. Something that may seem like a minor impact or situation can result in a very significant injury to somebody who has a preexisting condition. In Kansas, you are entitled to receive damages if an injury has worsened that preexisting condition. It doesn’t necessarily mean that if you have a preexisting condition, you will have a problem pursuing a claim, but like I said, sometimes it can even be helpful.
