Evaluating and Presenting Claims for Pain That Is Difficult to Diagnose
Fibromyalgia is a controversial diagnosis for explaining chronic pain that lasts longer or is more intense than one would typically expect from the nature of the injuries or trauma suffered in an accident. Medical science has yet to develop a consensus as to the causes or most effective treatments for fibromyalgia.
Beyond controversy is the likelihood that ICBC or any other insurer will resist payment for claims related to fibromyalgia without proper documentation and qualified expert testimony that not only supports the injury claim but also relates its cause to an accident. The personal injury lawyers at Murphy Battista have extensive experience with the investigation and proof of chronic pain claims as an element of damages in accident compensation cases.

Our law firm works with people throughout British Columbia and Western Canada to help chronic pain sufferers discover the causes of their problems, get access to the most effective treatments, and recover compensation for any continuing pain problems that we can prove resulted from the negligence of someone else.
In fibromyalgia cases, this sequence of proof is usually difficult and always met with stiff resistance. Nevertheless, our experience with the proof of damages covers the difficult and disputed claims as well as the easy ones. Even more important than the chance to recover compensation, however, is the opportunity to work with an outstanding legal and medical team to find answers to your questions about what to do for chronic and debilitating pain, fatigue and discomfort.
For additional information about the ways our lawyers can help people who suspect that their chronic problems with fibromyalgia or other pain disorders resulted from a motor vehicle accident or another form of negligence, contact Murphy Battista for a free consultation.
