Yes you should but really only for medical bills and for mileage. Expenses like meals to visit the doctor aren't going to be reimbursed, but mileage is and if you can later show the medical expense causally related to the original work injury the lawyer will be able to get the medical expenses that you paid out of pocket reimbursed. So do yourself a favor while helping your lawyer by keeping all receipts on a file folder.

If you or an interested person are in a collision and you would like the crash analyzed you'll need to contact Attorney Lombardi. This may or may not result in an attorney-client relationship and simply asking for a review does not in and of itself create such a relationship. If you ask and Mr. Lombardi thinks you have a case he will say so and provide an agreement for representation that then creates an attorney-client relationship. The bottom line is that Mr. Lombardi has to agree to take you on as a client; the first step of course is asking him. You've got two ways: telephone 515-222-1110 or email sent to sdlombardi@aol.com.
