EMS signed retainers
Not a lead. Not a form fill. A signed, documented serious-injury client — sourced from a real emergency response and delivered to your firm ready to work.
What an EMS signed retainer is
How a case is born — start to finish
Every case follows the same governed path before it lands in your docket.
- 1Crash & EMS
A real accident — the victim is transported. A documented severity signal, not a self-report.
- 2Data acquired
Within 24–72 hrs from EMS + police report where available.
- 3Intent tracking
We identify claimants who are actively seeking a lawyer.
- 4Compliant outreach
The claimant initiates contact — ABA 7.3 aligned, documented consent.
- 5Screening
Fraud, ID, prior-attorney and qualification checks.
- 6Retainer + HIPAA
Executed agreement; the full file is compiled.
- 7Delivered
Signed & ready to work — or live-transferred.
EMS vs. standard signed retainer
Both are signed retainers — the same legal agreement. What differs is everything sitting behind the signature.
| EMS signed retainerPerk MVA | Standard signed retainerTypical form-fill source | |
|---|---|---|
| Where the case starts | Documented EMS response + hospital transport, pulled from EMS/police data within 24–72 hrs | Online form fill — self-reported “I was in an accident” |
| Injury severity & case value | Pre-filtered by EMS + ER — real, higher-value injuries (Tier 1B excludes soft-tissue) | No severity filter — heavy on minor-impact, soft-tissue, low-value matters |
| Timing | Golden window — engaged within days of the crash | Often aged or delayed data by the time it’s worked |
| How the claimant is contacted | Claimant-initiated after demonstrated intent — ABA 7.3 aligned | Broad-consent lead pools — more TCPA exposure |
| Documentation delivered | Compiled file: police report, EMS data, insurance, photos, ID, HIPAA, call recordings | Thin — usually just the signed agreement and a basic intake sheet |
| Data source | Exclusive, governed — one firm per market | Open-market — recycled across many firms |
| Saturation / competition | Low — you reach them first | High — already called by three or four firms |
| Screening | Fraud, ID, serial-litigant & prior-attorney screening built in | Varies — more duplicates and junk to sort |
| Intake labor on your firm | Done for you — case is work-ready on day one | Your team chases, qualifies, and compiles it |
| How you buy it | Deposit-based — filled with qualifying cases by tier | Order a batch / per-case, cherry-picked criteria |
| Quality policy | 14-day credit/replacement on any off-criteria case | Varies by vendor — often none |
What you receive with every case
- Executed retainer agreement + HIPAA authorization
- Police report / EMS incident data where available
- Insurance & claim information
- Accident & vehicle-damage photos, driver ID
- Call recordings, verification & consent documentation
- A complete, organized file — ready to litigate on day one
Fully qualified before it reaches you
A case only becomes a signed retainer once it clears every one of these:
- Genuine motor-vehicle accident with bodily injury
- Coverage confirmed — at-fault party insured, or valid UM/UIM
- No prior attorney on the matter
- No prior settlement
- Injured party willing to treat
- Identity-verified & screened, then signed before delivery
Pricing — per signed retainer
Flat rate by tier, consistent across states.
Standard qualified injury case — a real accident with bodily injury, coverage, and willingness to treat.
Same qualification, excluding soft-tissue-only matters — a harder-injury, higher-value baseline.
Catastrophic passenger-vehicle injury matter.
Serious injury involving a commercial vehicle.
Catastrophic commercial-vehicle collision.
Higher-tier and police-report-backed cases available as your appetite grows — the program can be built around your Tier 1 baseline. Minimum program engagement applies.
How you engage the program
A deposit-based program. You choose your market and severity criteria; we source and fill it with the cases that qualify as they happen.
