Can I still make a claim if I was previously hurt in the same part of my body?
I get this question all the time from clients, and the answer is yes. What we are talking about is a pre-existing injury or condition. A pre-existing injury is an injury to a part of the body that was previously hurt or had an ongoing medical condition at the time of an accident. I regularly have new clients who have a pre-existing injury and it can cause problems when making a claim for the injuries from the accident.
