Nine categories, dozens of practices
"Personal injury" is not a specialty.
It is a category containing a dozen genuinely separate practices. A firm that is formidable at catastrophic brain injury may be indifferent at disability terminations. A firm that runs excellent soft-tissue files may be the wrong choice entirely when a transport carrier is involved.
Each page below sets out what actually differentiates a claim of that kind, what competent counsel does in the first weeks, and — the part most sites omit — when a claim may not be worth running at all.

That's a reason to start, not a reason to wait.
Plenty of files sit across two categories, and a few turn out to be something different from what the person assumed. Sorting that out is our job, not yours.
