What does the free case review include, and how long does it take?

The free case review is a focused conversation with an attorney about the facts of your incident, your medical status, and the documentation you already have. Typical reviews last twenty to thirty minutes, though complex matters can take longer. You will discuss who may be at fault, which evidence should be preserved, and what steps could improve your position with insurers. The attorney will explain applicable timelines and outline practical next moves, such as obtaining complete medical records or requesting scene video before it is overwritten. You will also learn about the contingency fee structure and the potential costs that the firm advances during the case. The review is designed to answer immediate questions and provide a clear plan without any upfront payment.

Do I need to bring documents to the consultation, and what if I do not have them yet?

Bring whatever you can gather easily. Helpful items include medical discharge papers, imaging reports, photographs of damage or injuries, the police or incident report, names of witnesses, and insurance details. If you do not have documents yet, do not worry. The attorney can still assess the situation and give you a checklist for fast follow up. Many clients begin with only a few photos and a claim number. The firm can request records, reports, and billing statements on your behalf if you decide to proceed. The goal is to start the process quickly, then fill gaps with targeted requests. Early contact still matters because digital evidence and camera footage can be overwritten in a short period of time.

How does the contingency fee work, and what costs should I expect

A contingency fee means the firm is paid only if there is a recovery through settlement or judgment. The fee is a percentage of the recovery and is discussed with you in writing before representation begins. In addition to the fee, there are case costs such as records requests, expert consultations, filing fees, and depositions. The firm typically advances reasonable costs and is reimbursed at the end of the case from the recovery. If there is no recovery, clients generally do not owe an attorney fee. The structure is designed to allow injured people to pursue claims without paying upfront. You will receive a clear explanation of expected ranges based on the complexity of your case and the likely steps involved.

How soon after an accident should I contact a lawyer for a review?

It is best to speak with an attorney as soon as your immediate medical needs are stable. Early contact helps preserve time sensitive evidence like surveillance footage, vehicle data, and scene measurements. It also prevents common mistakes, such as casual statements to insurers that can later be used to dispute liability or minimize injuries. An attorney can guide you on documenting symptoms, following medical advice, and tracking missed work. This early structure improves both your health recovery and your legal position. Even if you think the injuries are minor, some conditions worsen over time, so consistent treatment and accurate records matter. A fast review costs nothing and can prevent problems that are hard to fix later.

What types of cases qualify for the free case review program

The program is open to most personal injury matters in California, including auto and rideshare collisions, pedestrian and bicycle incidents, premises liability claims such as slip or trip events, and other injury scenarios. The firm also evaluates workplace injury situations that may involve third party liability in addition to any workers compensation benefits. If your matter falls outside the firm’s practice, you will receive a referral when possible. The review assesses liability, damages, and next steps regardless of case size. Even if you are unsure whether fault is clear, the attorney can explain how evidence and expert analysis may clarify responsibility. The aim is to give injured residents accessible legal guidance at the earliest stage.

Free Case Reviews Available Statewide from Addison Miller

Addison Miller launches a statewide free case review program for injured Californians

September 1, 2025

Addison-Miller Law

Addison Miller Law Firm announces a statewide free case review program for injury victims across California. The initiative removes cost barriers at the earliest stage of a claim, giving injured residents timely guidance on liability, damages, and next steps. The firm highlights fast attorney access, clear communication, and strategic planning as the keys to securing fair outcomes for clients.

Los Angeles, California — Addison Miller Law Firm today announced the launch of a statewide free case review program designed to give injury victims immediate access to legal guidance. California residents who were hurt in auto collisions, pedestrian incidents, premises accidents, or workplace events can now speak with an attorney at no cost to understand options and timelines.

The free review focuses on three pillars:

Liability clarity: A clear view of fault, evidence needs, and potential defenses.
Damage mapping: Medical expenses, lost wages, property loss, and pain and suffering.
Strategic timing: Steps to preserve evidence and avoid common missteps with insurance.

During the consultation, attorneys evaluate medical documentation, accident reports, photographs, video footage, and early witness information. They also discuss care coordination and the importance of consistent treatment records. For clients who choose to move forward, the firm works on a contingency fee basis, meaning the firm only receives a fee if there is a recovery.

According to the firm, early legal guidance protects claim value by managing recorded statements, preserving digital and physical evidence, and maintaining consistent communication with providers and insurers. The firm’s goal is to reduce uncertainty for injured Californians and provide a clear path from first call to resolution.

Injury victims may request a free review by phone or through the firm’s website. Same day consultations are often available, and Spanish language support can be arranged upon request.
