How it works
Three steps. About a minute.
No forms to print, no calls to make. You answer, we check, and a firm in your state reaches out if your case fits.
Answer a few questions
What happened, when, and whether you were hurt. It takes about 60 seconds on your phone.
Confirm your number
We text you a 6-digit code. It keeps your request private and makes sure the right person gets the call.
A participating firm reviews it
If your answers fit and a firm in your state is taking new cases, that firm contacts you for a free case review. You decide what happens next.
Accident types
Every kind of vehicle accident
Whether you were driving, riding or walking, start with the type of accident.

After an accident
What to do in the days after a crash
General information, not legal advice. A lawyer can tell you what applies to your case and your state.
See a doctor, even if you feel fine
Some injuries, like whiplash or a concussion, show up days later. A visit also puts your injuries on record.
Keep photos and paperwork
Photos of the vehicles and the scene, the police report number, the other driver's insurance, and every medical bill.
Be careful what you sign
The other driver's insurer may call quickly. Before you sign a release or accept an offer, know what your claim could be worth.
Mind the deadline
Every state sets a time limit for injury claims. In most it is two or three years; in a few it is one. Checking early keeps your options open.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Does it cost anything?
No. The claim check is free and there is no obligation. Participating law firms pay us to receive requests; you pay us nothing. If you choose to work with a firm, that firm explains its own fees to you.
Are you a law firm?
No. Vehicle Accident Hub is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. We connect people who ask for help with one participating personal injury law firm in their state.
Who will contact me?
If your answers fit and a participating firm in your state is taking new cases, that firm is named before you submit and may call or text you about your request. If no firm is available, we tell you on the next screen.
How is the firm chosen?
By location and case type only. It is not a recommendation or an evaluation of any lawyer, and it does not mean a firm is the best or right lawyer for you.
Will my information be shared?
Your request goes to one participating firm, the one named before you submit. Read how we handle your information in our Privacy Policy.
What if the accident was partly my fault?
It depends on your state. Some states let you recover even if you share some fault; a few do not. Answer honestly and the check takes it into account.
I already have a lawyer. Can I still use this?
If you are happy with your lawyer, you do not need us. If you are thinking about switching, you can say so in the questions.
Do I have to hire the lawyer who calls?
No. Submitting a request does not create an attorney-client relationship, and you are under no obligation to hire anyone who contacts you.
Find out where you stand
About 60 seconds, free, and no obligation. If your case fits, a participating firm in your state reviews it.
