If you’re looking for straightforward information about how mass tort claims work, the role Legal Injury Advocates plays, or what to expect when you reach out, this FAQ is a helpful place to start. Our team helps people explore whether they qualify to pursue a legal claim involving harmful products or exposures, and we connect individuals with collaborating co-counsel when appropriate. The answers below provide general guidance to help you better understand each step of the process.

What is Legal Injury Advocates, and how do you help people?

Legal Injury Advocates is a law firm that helps people explore whether they may qualify to pursue a legal claim involving harmful products, medications, or environmental exposures. We are the first step in the process. We collect information, perform initial legal analysis, explain general mass tort concepts, and connect individuals with collaborating co-counsel for further evaluation when appropriate. Our role is to help you understand the claim review process and determine whether your situation meets the initial case criteria for further investigation. We do not provide medical advice, and nothing here replaces speaking with a doctor about your health.

Is Legal Injury Advocates a law firm?

Yes. Legal Injury Advocates is the trade name for Saddle Rock Legal Group, headquartered in Arizona. We work with experienced collaborating co-counsel and collectively handle the legal review, determine whether a claim is appropriate to move forward, decide whether it is suitable to file as a lawsuit, and provide continuing strategic litigation and settlement advice along the way. Until a law firm is officially engaged and a lawsuit is filed in state or federal court, the matter is considered a claim, not a case.

Do I have to pay anything up front to work with Legal Injury Advocates?

You do not have to pay anything up front to have your claim reviewed. If we, along with our collaborating co-counsel, choose to move forward, legal services may be offered on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you only pay attorneys’ fees if you receive compensation. Contingency fees are not permitted in all types of cases. Clients may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.

How do I know if I qualify for a mass tort case?

Qualifying depends on many factors, including your exposure history, medical records, timing, and other details unique to your situation. Because every claim is different, we and our co-counsel will review your information to determine whether it meets the criteria for further steps. We cannot predict or guarantee outcomes, and qualifying can only be determined after a full legal evaluation.

What kinds of cases do you handle?

We help people explore potential claims related to a wide range of harmful products or exposures, including certain consumer goods, medications, chemicals, and environmental hazards. Products referenced in educational materials are those for which active mass-action investigations exist. When we discuss medications or medical devices, nothing is a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Never stop taking a prescribed medication without first talking to your doctor.

How does the mass tort claim process work with Legal Injury Advocates?

The process begins with a brief intake where you share key information about your situation. Our team evaluates whether your claim may fit the general criteria. If so, collaborating co-counsel receives your information after an engagement agreement is executed, reviews it in more detail, and may request additional documentation. If they determine your claim is appropriate to pursue, they will discuss the next steps directly with you. Nothing becomes a “case” unless a lawyer is formally engaged and files a lawsuit on your behalf.

What happens after I contact Legal Injury Advocates?

You’ll speak with a trained team member who gathers information about your exposure, injuries, and timeline. This information may be shared with collaborating co-counsel for evaluation, and it is otherwise confidential to the extent permissible by law. If collaborating co-counsel and our firm believe your claim warrants further review, they will reach out to you directly for additional details or documentation.

Is Legal Injury Advocates a scam?

No. We are a legitimate law firm working with experienced co-counsel for mass-action claim evaluations. We follow strict ethical guidelines to ensure communications are truthful, substantiated, and not misleading. We never guarantee results, and we avoid overstating the simplicity or likelihood of success, in line with compliance requirements.

What areas of the country does Legal Injury Advocates serve?

We assist individuals throughout the United States. If we, along with our collaborating co-counsel, determine that your claim is appropriate for further review, we will consider the relevant state laws and statutes of limitations that may apply in your situation. Time to file may be sensitive depending on the type of claim and where you live, but we do not pressure anyone into taking action.

What types of harmful products or exposures qualify for a mass tort case?

Different mass torts involve different criteria, but they often relate to products or exposures that may be associated with injuries, illnesses, or long-term health effects. These may include certain prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, consumer chemical products, household items, devices, or environmental contaminants. Whether your particular exposure may qualify can only be determined after reviewing the facts of your situation.

What documents or evidence do I need to start a claim?

The documents needed depend on the type of claim. Common items may include medical records, proof of product use or exposure, purchase receipts, employment records, or diagnostic information. Collaborating co-counsel may request additional documentation if they determine your claim warrants further review. You do not need all the documentation in hand before contacting us. Our team can help you understand what may be helpful.

How will I be updated on the progress of my case?

If collaborating co-counsel moves forward with your claim, they will provide updates as needed, request documentation when appropriate, and discuss any next steps. Because every claim is different, timelines vary. There is no guaranteed timeframe for review or decision-making, and we avoid predicting or promising outcomes in advance.

What happens if my case is not successful?

If collaborating co-counsel ultimately pursue a lawsuit and it is not successful, you would not owe attorneys’ fees under a contingency-fee agreement. Past results afford no guarantee of future outcomes or similar results. Every claim must be judged on its own merits.
