This article is general information only. It is not legal advice, and reading it does not create an attorney-client relationship.

This website intentionally collects very little. If a participating attorney contacts you, that firm conducts its own intake.

What we collect

• Your name, mobile phone, and email
• The state and ZIP where the accident occurred
• The date and general type of accident
• Whether you report an injury and whether you already have an attorney
• Your consent to be contacted

What we never collect

• Social Security or driver's license numbers
• Date of birth or government identification
• Medical records, diagnoses, or bills
• Insurance policy or claim numbers
• Banking or financial information
• Police reports, uploaded documents, or long narratives

What an attorney may ask about later

• A fuller description of how the collision happened
• The treatment you have received, if any
• Insurance coverage available to you and to other drivers
• Photographs, reports, and correspondence you have kept
• Time missed from work

You are not obligated

Requesting contact does not obligate you to hire anyone, and it does not create an attorney-client relationship.
