Select the TRUE statement(s) from the list below, according to the text of the advertisement.

GoldenWheelchair helps prevent clients from having accidents.

This is incorrect. GoldenWheelchair.com provides compensation for people who have had accidents, there is no indication that the company prevents people from having accidents. "To prevent (somebody) from (doing something)" is "to stop or block" them from doing it. Example: Donna prevented the man from jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.

GoldenWheelchair provides judicial advice for customers who have had accidents.

This is a true statement. The advertisement states that customers who have had accidents "will be contacted by a claims specialist who will provide legal advice." A "claims specialist" describes someone who is qualified and has experience talking about accident compensation. "Legal advice" refers to "judicial counsel": giving expert opinion relating to the law.

Doctors are provided to GoldenWheelchair.com clients.

This is incorrect. The advertisement does not state that doctors will be provided to GoldenWheelchair customers, instead it states that "a personal injury lawyer" will "handle your claim". A "personal injury lawyer" is a representative of the law who specialises in accidents and injuries to individuals.

GoldenWheelchair charges customers for its services.

This is incorrect. GoldenWheelchair doesn't charge for its services. "To charge (money)" is "to ask for payment". Example: "I was charged 200 euros for the haircut." The advertisement states that "you never pay a dime" for the GoldenWheelchair service. A "dime" is a coin which has the value of ten American cents. In American currency, there are 10 "dimes", 20 "nickles", 100 "pennies", or 4 "quarters" in a dollar.
