Good morning, thank you for calling Thornton & Vega Trial Attorneys. This is Victoria on the firm's priority intake desk. I can definitely help you with your claim today—may I have your full legal name first?
Yeah, hi... Marcus. Marcus Holloway.
Thank you, Marcus. And what's the best direct cell phone number and email address to reach you for consultation confirmations and legal paperwork?
My cell is (214) 747-4110. Email is m dot holloway 88 at gmail dot com.
Got that down, Marcus. Now tell me what happened, and are you in a safe place to talk right now?
Yeah, I'm at home. I got rear-ended by an eighteen-wheeler on Interstate 35 in Denton last night, and the trucking company's insurance adjuster has already called my cell twice this morning trying to get a recorded statement. My wife told me not to talk to them until we talk to a lawyer.
Your wife gave you the exact right advice, Marcus. Do not give any recorded statement to that adjuster. Before we go any further—have you signed with or spoken to any other attorney about this crash yet?
No, ma'am, you guys are the first firm I've called.
Understood. First and most important—how are you feeling this morning, and did paramedics evaluate you at the scene?
The ambulance took me over to Texas Health Denton last night. They did X-rays, sent me home in a neck collar, but my neck is stiff as a board and my left arm has been tingling all morning. The ER doctor told me I need a cervical MRI if the numbness doesn't go away.
We will want our medical team to get that MRI scheduled right away. Did the Denton police or Texas Highway Patrol investigate at the scene, and do you have a police report number or know the trucking company's name?
Yeah, Denton PD gave me crash report number 24-910, and the truck had Heartland Freight on the door. My wife actually took photos of the cab showing USDOT number 3194812 before the wrecker towed my truck.
Having that USDOT number and police report is huge, Marcus. Commercial carriers overwrite black box data within seven days, so our litigation team needs to send an immediate spoliation letter today to preserve that evidence. Now Marcus, before we look at the attorneys' schedule, what immediate questions do you have for me about how our firm handles these cases or what to expect next?
Yeah, actually... what does this cost up front? I just don't have money to hire a lawyer out of pocket right now.
I completely understand, Marcus. There is zero out-of-pocket cost to you. We work strictly on contingency, which means our firm covers all investigation and court costs, and we only get paid if we win a financial recovery for you. If we don't recover, you owe us nothing.
Man, that takes a huge weight off my shoulders.
Marcus, does that answer your questions, or do you have anything else for me before we look at the attorneys' schedule?
No, ma'am, that was my main worry. That takes a huge load off.
Understood. Now let's get you on Senior Managing Partner Elena Vega's calendar. What time of day works best with your schedule—are mornings or afternoons better for you?
Afternoons work better for me.
Elena Vega has an opening tomorrow afternoon at 2:00 PM, or Wednesday at 3:30 PM. Would 2:00 PM tomorrow work for you?
2:00 PM tomorrow is perfect.
You are confirmed for tomorrow at 2:00 PM with Elena Vega. Marcus, I just dispatched our confidential digital contingency agreement and evidence upload link straight to your cell phone ending in four one one zero. Tap that link right on your screen. You will see our portal open up with the crash summary and our contingency terms. Scroll to the bottom, sign with your finger in the signature box, and tap Sign and Authorize Representation. I will wait right here on the line with you while you do that.
Got the text right here... opening the link... scrolling down to the bottom... alright, signing with my finger... and done, just tapped Sign and Authorize.
Wonderful! I see that countersigned agreement in our litigation file. Elena Vega will review everything with you tomorrow at 2:00 PM. And counselor, that concludes our live demonstration!

If you would like our system protecting your firm's after-hours line with zero risk, I can text you our 7-day free trial link right now with zero dollars due today. Should I send that over to this cell phone?
Yeah, definitely send that over. How long does setup take?
I just sent the link to your phone! Setup takes under five minutes with a simple call forwarding star code. Plus, we include a five-minute assisted setup link with a live telephony engineer if you'd prefer us to handle it for you. Your first seven days are completely on us.
