What to Preserve Before You Call

Injury, Vehicle Collision, or Unsafe Property

If available, preserve photographs or video of the scene, vehicles, property, and visible injuries; police or incident reports; witness names and contact information; insurance correspondence; medical-provider names; receipts; and the dates of treatment or missed work. Keep original files and unedited copies. Do not delay medical care or a call to the office while gathering documents.

Wrongful Death or Serious Family Loss

Preserve available reports, photographs, video, witness information, medical and funeral records, insurance correspondence, and documents showing the family relationship and economic effects of the loss. Avoid altering original electronic files. The office can explain what may matter after learning the basic circumstances.

Criminal Charge, Arrest, Investigation, or DUI

Keep the citation, warrant, charging papers, bond or release papers, court notices, property receipts, and any relevant messages, photographs, or video. Note the county, court, arresting agency, next court date, custody status, and bond status. Do not miss court or a reporting requirement while waiting for an online response.

Court Forms or Another Civil Question

Keep complete copies of court papers, notices, orders, agreements, correspondence, and any document showing a hearing date or filing deadline. Use official form instructions and court sources. The finder does not choose a form, calculate a deadline, or determine whether a form fits a particular case.

Legal Help Finder FAQs

Does the Legal Help Finder contact the law office?

No. The finder does not send your selections to the office. Contact occurs only if you call or submit the separate case-review form.

Does using the finder create an attorney-client relationship?

No. Using the finder, calling the office, or submitting a case-review request does not create an attorney-client relationship. Representation begins only after the firm accepts the matter in writing.

Does the finder collect my case details?

No. The finder asks only for broad categories such as the type of problem, location, and kind of help requested. Do not enter confidential or highly sensitive information into an initial online form.

What should I do if a court date or deadline is close?

Call (334) 230-7986 promptly. The finder and an online submission do not stop a court date, filing deadline, or other time limit.
