Common Questions
Common questions about delivery, disclaimers, and funnel access
Are these PDFs legal advice?
No. Each guide is educational only and is meant to help readers organize facts, documents, and questions before they rely on state-specific legal advice.
Why is the adjuster tactics guide free?
It solves the earliest, highest-anxiety problem on the site. JusticeFinder uses it as the top-of-funnel entry point before buyers move into the paid claim and settlement systems.
How are paid PDFs delivered?
Checkout runs through PayPal, then the download route re-verifies the completed order server-side before the PDF is streamed.
Can I access the PDFs directly from a public URL?
No. Direct public PDF access is blocked. Downloads must come through the secure API flow so the correct product and access method are validated first.
