FAQ’s

Learn More

Accident Support

Car accidents are more painful when repairs and injury leave you facing unpaid time off, medical bills, and repair costs. Talk to one of our preferred lawyers for free, and get help applying for workers’ compensation from The Black Car Fund.

Traffic Tickets

Before you pay your traffic ticket, talk to IDG Legal. For $100, one of our attorneys will go to court for you and fight your ticket. That way you can keep your insurance low, keep your license, and keep driving.

Claiming Workers' Compensation from the Black Car Fund

If you are a New York driver and you were injured on the job, we can provide a lawyer who has experience with New York State Workers’ Compensation issues and can help you get money from The Black Car Fund. For drivers outside of New York, we can help with all other injury compensation claims.

Housing Issues

You don’t have to face landlord disputes or eviction alone. Meet with a lawyer, free of charge, who will help you understand your rights as a tenant, make sense of lease agreements and eviction notices, and pursue a case in small claims court, if relevant.

Tax and Limousine Commission (TLC) Issues

A letter from the TLC is the last thing any rideshare driver wants to see. Before you pay your fine (and therefore admit wrongdoing), talk to one of our lawyers for help protecting yourself against license loss.

9/11 Compensation Fund

If you’re dealing with certain types of cancer, respiratory illness, or lung disease and worked in the Exposure Zone in the days after 9/11, you could be eligible for the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund and free healthcare from the WTC Health Program. Contact us for help applying.

Immigration

The immigration system is difficult for anyone to understand—especially if English is your second, third, or fourth language. Access a lawyer who will help you with your green card, citizenship, DACA, or refugee and asylum applications, free of charge.
