What to Expect From Your Free Case Evaluation

Taking the first step toward justice can feel intimidating—especially when dealing with a sensitive issue like bedsores affecting you or a loved one. At NYC Bedsore Lawyer, we understand these concerns, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way. Your free case evaluation is a compassionate, confidential conversation designed to provide clarity and support. Here’s exactly what you can expect and how you can best prepare.

A Friendly, Confidential Conversation

First and foremost, your comfort matters. When you schedule a free case evaluation with our firm, you’ll speak with an experienced intake coordinator who understands the sensitivity of bedsore injuries and their impact. This initial conversation is:

  • Completely free: You’ll never pay for this call.
  • 100% confidential: Everything you share stays private between you and our firm.
  • No pressure: This is simply an opportunity to discuss your situation and explore your legal options. There's no obligation to proceed unless you're ready.

What Will We Discuss?

During your evaluation, we'll cover some key points:

1. Your Story and Situation

We’ll invite you to share what happened in your own words. We understand this might be emotional, so take your time. We’re here to listen without judgment and provide the support you deserve.

2. Basic Information About the Bedsore Injury

We'll discuss details such as:

  • When and where the bedsore developed.
  • How the facility or caregivers responded.
  • Any medical treatment you've sought or received.
  • Current condition of the injury.

3. Legal and Medical History (Brief Overview)

We'll ask basic questions about:

  • The care setting (hospital, nursing home, home care, etc.).
  • Previous attempts at resolution or communication with the care providers.
  • Any documentation you might have, including medical records, photos, or notes.

4. Your Questions and Concerns

We encourage you to ask anything that’s on your mind. Our goal is for you to feel fully informed about your legal rights and the next steps.

How to Prepare for Your Intake Call

To make the most of our conversation, we recommend having the following information ready (but don’t worry if you don’t have everything—we can always gather more details later):

  • Key dates and locations: When did the bedsore first appear? Where did it occur?
  • Medical details: Severity of the bedsore (stage, if known), treatments administered, doctors or nurses involved.
  • Names of facilities or caregivers: Where the bedsore developed and who was responsible for care.
  • Records and documentation: Medical records, photographs of the bedsore, correspondence or messages from care providers.
  • List of questions: Write down anything you want clarified about your rights, legal options, or our process.

After Your Evaluation: Clear Next Steps

By the end of your intake call, you'll clearly understand:

  • Whether your situation warrants legal action.
  • Potential next steps to pursue your claim.
  • How our law firm can support you throughout the legal process.

If you decide to move forward, we'll guide you through each stage seamlessly, advocating fiercely on your behalf. And if legal action isn't the right fit, we'll offer guidance on alternative solutions to help you move forward.

You’re Not Alone—We’re Here to Help

We know reaching out about a bedsore injury isn’t easy, but you’re not alone. Our entire team at NYC Bedsore Lawyer is committed to treating you with compassion, dignity, and respect from the very first call.
