Sadly, and unbelievably, there are lawyers who scour the accident reports from recent car crashes in order to solicit, either on the telephone, letter, or both, potential clients in hopes of drumming up business. Many lawyers, including myself, look with disfavor on this practice because it gives personal injury lawyers a bad name.

It is considered improper solicitation so if it happens to you, do not trust that the lawyer attempting to solicit you is an ethical lawyer.
