Over 70 Years of Helping Injured People
What happens when you or a loved one is injured at work, hurt in a car accident, suffer a medical mishap or harmed by a defective product? Injuries from these accidents have life-altering consequences. These accidents can cause serious injuries to your health, your job, family, and security.

Your rights have been under attack for years by insurance companies and big business. They have used slick campaigns in an effort to convince the public that there are frivolous lawsuits, runaway juries, and a civil justice system in need of reform.

And, too many people have bought into this corporate spin. Your rights as a worker, accident victim, and patient slowly erode. For the most difficult challenges in life, you need a law firm. Galfand Berger assists injured people. Since 1947, we have been doing this.

It is our firm’s privilege to help restore dignity and security to people hurt because of automobile accidents, defective products, unsafe equipment and machinery, work place and construction accidents, workers’ compensation claims, medical malpractice and any other serious personal injuries or accidents.

Galfand Berger attorneys are relentless advocates for our clients. Each case is unique and the outcome will depend on the circumstances. Our firm will fight tirelessly for your rights.

We approach each case with the integrity, skill, and compassion our clients deserve and it shows in our results. Galfand Berger has obtained more than a quarter of a billion dollars in settlements in the past decade alone. Here are some of the cases we have handled as we take on large corporations, insurance carriers and other negligent parties

When do you need legal help from us?
Accident victims may not know if they require legal advice. Workers who are injured on the job can usually file for Workers’ Compensation benefits. You may be able sue a third party if your employer is responsible for your injury. This includes a manufacturer or seller of unsafe equipment, a seller or driver of dangerous chemicals, and a contractor or subcontractor who works on your employer’s premises. Your third party claim allows you to recover damages not available in Workers’ Compensation.

In other cases, car accident victims think they must take what the insurance company offers them. The confusion of insurance policies and coverages has made automobile accidents law a full time study. Accident victims should speak with a lawyer. An experienced lawyer in car accidents can help victims get full compensation from their insurance companies, as well as evaluate and protect their legal rights.

In all of these circumstances, accident victims may be walking away with much less than they deserve. Injured people or their families should never hesitate to seek legal help from experienced, trusted counsel when any of the following circumstances occur:
