About UpperHand Claims
A free referral service for Florida vehicle-accident cases
After a crash, the insurance company knows the process and you don't. Its first offer is built to be small, and it usually arrives when you are tired, hurting, and short on money. UpperHand Claims exists to close that gap: get the upper hand before you accept anything.
What we do
Everything starts with one question — do you already have a lawyer for this accident?
- Not yet: we connect you with an independent, licensed Florida personal injury attorney who takes cases like yours on contingency.
- Yes: we connect you with a third-party pre-settlement funding provider, so you can ask about an advance while your case is still open.
Either way, a real person calls you back first to understand your situation. You decide what happens next.
What we don't do
- We are not a law firm and do not give legal advice.
- We are not a lender or a funding company.
- We do not charge you, and we never take a share of legal fees or of your settlement.
- We do not promise results. Anyone who does is not being straight with you.
How we are paid
The attorneys and funding providers we work with may compensate us for referrals. That is what keeps the service free for you, and it is also why we tell you plainly that this site is advertising. The details are in our Advertising Disclosure.
Being straight about funding
Pre-settlement funding helps some people hold out for a fair result instead of taking a low offer because rent is due. It also has real costs, and it is not the right move for every case. We would rather you hear that from us before you sign anything than after.
Where we work
Florida only — car, truck, motorcycle, rideshare, pedestrian, and bicycle crashes.
