That happens more often than people realize.
Many real life legal situations overlap. A single issue can involve more than one area of law, or it may not be obvious at first which category matters most.
For example, an injury may involve work and an accident. A business issue may involve personal disputes. An employment problem may include retaliation or discrimination. A product issue may involve both injury and liability questions.
You do not need to decide where your situation belongs before reaching out.
Your job is not to classify the issue perfectly. Your job is simply to explain what happened as clearly as you can.
An attorney can listen to your situation and help determine which area of law applies and what the next step should be.
If your situation does not fit neatly into one category, that does not mean help is unavailable. It just means clarification comes first.
