100% Free case evaluation
There is no cost to you for our service
The firm we refer your case to pays us a referral fee, if and only if they win your case. This fee in no way increases the amount of money the firm would charge you after they win your case.
A free service to connect you to one of the best lawyers in your area.
It may be very difficult for you to find and then contact one of the best lawyers in your area. This is because these highly regarded attorneys are very busy and are difficult to reach. We can get these highly regarded attorneys on the phone because we are also experienced attorneys. We will present them the facts of your case and if the firm is interested in finding out more, we will help to setup a time when the two of you can speak.
Level The Playing Field Between The Multi-Billion Dollar Corporations & You.
Many lawyers agree to advance the costs to develop your case so you don’t have to pay for out of pocket expenses. They’ll advance money to cover expenses such as medical records and reports, court fees, and litigation costs. These same lawyers also take accident and injury cases on a contingency fee basis and are only paid if they recover money damages for you. If there is no recovery then you owe no legal fees. We will help to put you in contact with a powerful advocate to help you maximize the amount of money you can get for your case and take on these multi-billion dollar corporations.
