Frequently Asked Questions
Because we are able to automate much of the process, we are able to offer our services on a 20% contingency fee – half of what some of the large TV lawyers charge. Those types of law firms rely on rooms full of claim handlers to do what we are able to accomplish with technology, allowing us to operate at a lower cost and pass the savings on to you.
A contingency fee arrangement means our lawyers provide legal counsel in return for a percentage of the settlement. There is no hourly fee, and our contingency lawyers only get paid if we secure a settlement on your behalf.

The only cost you can expect to pay in addition to the contingency fee is the cost of collecting medical records. Federal law strictly limits the fees providers may charge, though that law is routinely ignored by providers, who often charge patients hundreds of dollars for their own records.
We partner with a records collection service that specializes in enforcing fee limitations. With this partnership, the cost of medical records is generally $50-$75 per provider. We will advance the cost of collecting medical records on your behalf, only to be repaid at the end of the case. We find this to be the most cost-effective and speedy way to obtain the records we need to pursue your claim. We earn no profit from gathering your records.

Medical providers routinely charge patients to provide copies of their medical records or will provide patients with less than the complete record. Utilizing our records collection service guarantees that we have a complete set of all relevant records, and is often faster and less expensive than requesting the records yourself. It also provides the insurance company evaluating your claim with an assurance that the records are authentic and complete.
No. This is your case and your injury. If you are not satisfied with the settlement offer you are free to reject it, file a lawsuit, and go towards trial.
No. If you elect to reject the offer which we recommend as a settlement, that will conclude our work for you on the case.
Only a little. We rely heavily on email communications and electronic signatures in this process. All documentation is electronic, so we will ask you to share your files with us (such as police reports and car accident-related expense receipts) by sending them as attachments to a unique email address.
