PERSONAL INJURY

Life has changed.
Your next step matters.

A serious injury can affect work, independence, and family life. Start by making sense of the incident and documenting its impact.

Discuss your situation

CONCERNS TO DISCUSS

Start with what happened.

Vehicle collisions

Injuries involving cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, or pedestrians.

Unsafe conditions

Incidents involving a property condition, a fall, or another safety concern.

Defective products

Injuries involving equipment, consumer products, or suspected product failures.

Catastrophic injury and loss

Matters involving severe physical injuries, brain injuries, or the loss of a family member.

Make the first
conversation count.

Gather incident reports, photographs, medical records, insurance correspondence, and information about missed work. Preserve what you have and make a timeline while details are fresh.

Whether a claim is viable depends on the facts and applicable law. An initial conversation does not guarantee representation or a particular outcome.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you reach out.

Do I need all my records before calling?

You can begin by discussing the basics. Ask which records would be useful and how they should be provided.

What should I ask about timing?

Tell the attorney the incident date and location. Ask which deadlines may apply to your circumstances instead of relying on a general deadline found online.

How are fees and expenses handled?

Ask about the proposed fee arrangement, responsibility for expenses, and what happens if there is no recovery. Any terms should be addressed in a written agreement.
