What happened
What generally gets looked at is whether somebody else's conduct played a part in what happened to you, whether you were hurt, and whether those two things are connected. The rules are different in every state, and only a licensed attorney can say what they mean for you. The kinds of case below are how we sort what to ask about. They are not a decision about anybody's claim.
Each one below explains what it covers and what usually matters in that kind of case. These are facts we ask about. They are not legal advice, and nothing here says whether you have a claim.
Starting a case check does not mean we represent you.
01
Any crash on the road. You were driving, riding along, or parked and someone hit you. Hit and run counts too, and so does a crash where the police never came.
What usually matters in this kind of case
02
A semi truck, a box truck, a delivery van, a dump truck, or another big work vehicle hit you. These crashes usually involve a company, not only a driver.

03
You were riding and a driver hit you, turned in front of you, or pushed you off the road. Some people put this off because they were blamed at the scene. You can still ask.

04
You were a passenger, you were driving for the app, or a driver working for the app hit you. Who pays can depend on whether the app was on and whether a rider was in the car.

05
A vehicle hit you while you were on foot, on a bicycle, in a wheelchair, or on a scooter. These often happen at a corner, a crosswalk, or a driveway.

06
You fell on someone else's property. A wet floor in a store, broken stairs, a dark parking lot, ice nobody cleared, or a loose rug in a hallway.

07
You got hurt on the job or doing job duties. Workers comp is one path. Sometimes another company on the site, a machine maker, or a driver is also involved, and that is a separate question.

08
Someone you love died because of a crash, a fall, unsafe work, or medical care that went wrong. We are sorry. This case check is longer and slower, and you can do it over more than one call.

A different set of questions
These case checks ask about exposure and diagnosis instead of a single day. Expect questions about years, brands, job sites, and what a doctor told you. It takes longer, and it can run over more than one call.
Firefighters, military members, airport crews, and plant workers used a white foam to put out fuel fires. Some people who worked around it for years later got sick.
What this check asks about
This is the birth control shot given every few months. Some women who used it for a long time were later told they had a brain tumor called a meningioma.
What this check asks about
This list does not cover everything. A dog bite, a fire, a bad batch of food, a nursing home, a machine at a store, a boat. If you do not see it here, say it in your own words and we will ask from there.
Some matters are outside what this firm handles today. If yours is one of them, we tell you plainly and point you to neutral places to try, like your state bar referral line.
