The problem
Many accident victimsnever talk to a lawyer.
After a crash, the other driver's insurance company often calls first. It's easy to sign or say something that hurts your claim before you know your rights. Here's what often goes wrong — and how a free review helps.

Questionspeople ask us first.
01Is Accident Claim Check a law firm?
No. Accident Claim Check is a free attorney-matching and marketing service. We are not a law firm and do not give legal advice. If your answers suggest your case may qualify, we connect you with an independent personal injury attorney in your state.
02How much does the free case review cost?
Nothing. Checking your claim is free and there is no obligation. If you choose to work with an attorney, the attorney will explain their own fee agreement — many work on contingency, which generally means no attorney fee unless they recover compensation for you.
03How long does the claim check take?
Most people finish the form in about a minute. After you submit, a member of our intake team may call or text you to confirm a few details.
04Do I have a car accident case?
It depends on the facts — who caused the crash, whether you were injured and got treatment, when it happened and your state's rules. You may have a case if another driver was mainly at fault, you were hurt and you do not already have a lawyer. Our free check helps you find out.
05What happens after I submit the form?
Our intake team reviews your answers and may contact you by phone, text or email. If your situation may qualify, we connect you with an independent attorney in your state for a free consultation. You decide whether to move forward.
06Will submitting the form create an attorney–client relationship?
No. Submitting a form does not create an attorney–client relationship with us or with any attorney. That only happens if you and an attorney both agree to it, usually in a signed agreement.
07Is my information private?
We use your information to review your request and connect you with a participating attorney, as described in our Privacy Policy. We do not put your personal or health details in web addresses or analytics.
08What if I was partly at fault for the accident?
You may still have a claim. Most states reduce compensation by your share of fault instead of barring the claim entirely. A few states are stricter. The attorney you speak with can explain the rule where you live.
09How long do I have to make a claim?
Every state sets a deadline, called the statute of limitations. For injury claims it is often two or three years, but in some states it is only one year — and insurance notice deadlines can be much shorter. Do not wait.
10Do you cover my state?
Our attorney-matching service is available nationwide, in all 50 states and DC. Availability of a participating attorney depends on your location and case type.
