“Dear PoPville,
I was hit by a car as a pedestrian in a protected walkway and filed an insurance claim against the driver 5 months ago; insurance company answers my calls 10% of the time and basically tells me it’s pending. Medical bills are dueeeeee, is it lawyer time?? ):”
The early replies:
“Sorry to hear and hope your recovery is going well. Lawyer up”
“I had this exact issue and ended up getting a lawyer. Sadly it’s pricy and I know not everyone can afford that. Also just know it takes a loooot of time for the insurance to process claims, not matter if you have a lawyer or not. I hounded the claims rep”
“Probably lawyer time. Contact @dcbikelawyer”
“Find a good personal injury lawyer in dc & go talk to them. Make sure the consultation is free. (I’m a dc barred atty but not in dc anymore)”
“It was lawyer time when you got hit”
“Absolutely! Personal injury lawyers generally do not cost you any money upfront, but take 1/3 of the payout. It doesn’t hurt to consult a personal injury lawyer shortly after something like this happens.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
