For people who already have a lawyer

Your law firm went quiet. We do the chasing.

You hired a personal injury firm, and now nobody returns your calls. Sign up free, and from that moment we email them, follow up, telephone them and escalate above your attorney, until you get a straight answer. Then we keep checking every two weeks, for as long as your case is open.

Free, and always will be No card, ever Two minutes to start

PML-4KD9XQ We are chasing your firm
  • Your firm repliedDemand package went to the adjuster on the 14th. They expect a response within 30 days.
  • We called the officeAsked them to reply to our email, and offered to take an update by phone.
  • Second email sentSame three questions, politely resent, on the record.
  • First email sentYou were copied on it, as you are on everything.

Being ignored is not the same as nothing happening

Most firms are not hiding anything. They are busy, your file is one of hundreds, and the person who knows the answer is in a deposition. The problem is that nobody tells you that, so you sit there assuming the worst.

It is on the record

Every request is written, dated, and copied to you. A firm that lets one email slide rarely lets a documented third request slide, especially once the office manager is on it too.

It is not a complaint

We never accuse your firm of anything and we never threaten them. We ask three questions a paralegal can answer in one line. Being easy to answer is the entire trick.

It is not you nagging

Plenty of people stop calling because they feel like a nuisance to their own lawyer. You are not. But if it is easier to let someone else ask, that is what we are here for.

The ladder

What happens after you sign

Every step lands on a weekday, inside office hours. We are persistent and never abusive, and the whole thing stops the moment your firm answers.

  1. Day 1, we email your firmThree specific questions, with your signed authorization attached. You are copied.
  2. Day 4, we email againThe same questions, politely resent, so there is a written record of two attempts.
  3. Day 6, we telephone themOur assistant calls the office, says who it is calling for, and asks them to respond.
  4. Day 9, we go above your attorneyThe office manager and the firm's main inbox get the third written request.
  5. Day 11, we call once moreTwo calls is our limit per round. We are not a harassment service.
  6. Day 14, we report backIf they still said nothing, we tell you plainly, and you decide what you want to do.
  7. Then every two weeks, until the case is finishedA reply ends the round, not the service. We ask again a fortnight later, for as long as your case is open.

What your firm receives

Professional enough to answer

This is the actual message, not a mock up. It is short, it is courteous, and it proves you asked for it.

Subject Status update request, PML-4KD9XQ Maria Alvarez / file 2026-1187

Dear Ms. Whitfield,

We write on behalf of your client Maria Alvarez, who has asked us to help keep track of case updates. A signed authorization is on file and summarised below.

When you have a moment, could you confirm the following:

  1. What stage is the case at right now?
  2. What is the next step, and roughly when should it happen?
  3. Is anything needed from Maria Alvarez to keep things moving?

A short reply is perfect. Nothing here is a complaint about your handling of the matter.

Client authorization on file. Signed electronically by Maria Alvarez on September 1, 2026, verifiable at pingmylawyer.com/verify

The part everyone asks about

It is free. Here is the catch, and it is a real one.

We are not a charity and we are not pretending to be. We are paid a flat fee by a law firm only when a client asks us to introduce them to a new one. That is the whole business. So here is what we will never do.

  • You never pay us. No fee, no card, and never a cut of your settlement.
  • Your current firm can never pay us. They cannot buy their way off the list or slow us down.
  • We earn nothing from chasing. Whether they answer in a day or ignore us for a month, our revenue is the same: zero.
  • We only introduce you to another firm if you ask us to. Being chased never triggers a referral.
  • We never sell your information to anyone.

Straight answers

Will this annoy my lawyer?

Our messages are brief, courteous, and copied to you, so nothing happens behind your back. Firms handle client communication requests every day. If yours reacts badly to being asked for a status update, that tells you something worth knowing.

Are you lawyers?

No. We are a communication service. We do not give legal advice, we never tell your firm how to run your case, and we cannot settle anything. We ask for updates and pass the answers back word for word, without interpreting them.

Why do I have to sign something?

Your firm is not allowed to discuss your case with anyone but you. The authorization is your written permission for them to talk to us, and it covers status information only. It gives us no authority over your case, your settlement, or your money, and you can withdraw it in one click.

What if they still say nothing?

After three written requests and two calls we tell you plainly that the firm has gone silent. If you want, we will introduce you to a personal injury firm in your state that treats communication as part of the job. Changing lawyers is always your decision, and you are free to choose any attorney you like.

How long do you keep doing this?

Until your case is finished. We ask for an update every two weeks for as long as the case is open, so you are never more than a fortnight away from knowing where it stands. When they answer, we pass it on and the clock starts again.

Can I stop it?

Any time, from your case page. One click pauses the chasing, another withdraws the authorization completely, and we write to your firm to tell them we are done.

Does my current firm find out I signed up?

Yes, immediately and by design. The first email tells them exactly who we are and that you asked us to do this. This is not surveillance, it is a request for an update made openly in your name.

Two minutes to sign up. We write to your firm within the hour.
