Email me about your case
Keep the first message clear and factual. A short summary is usually more useful than a long narrative or a full document set.
I do not publish a general intake phone number because I personally screen each inquiry. If I agree to review your matter further, you'll have my direct phone number.

Include:
- Your name and best contact info (phone, email, preferred method)
- Your relationship to the affected person (self, parent, spouse, etc.)
- Where it happened (county and state, and the hospital or facility if relevant)
- When it happened (rough date or date range)
- A short summary: what was done or not done that you think was wrong, and what harm resulted
A few paragraphs is plenty for a first message. I read every inquiry personally, and if the case looks like a possible fit, I'll follow up with more specific questions.
If you'd prefer to use a structured template, here it is.
Copy the template below into a new email if you want a more structured first message.
