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 clever campaigns to convince the public that there is a civil justice system that needs reform, frivolous lawsuits, runaway jury members, and a civil justice system that is in dire need of reform.

And, too many people have bought into this corporate spin. All the while, your rights as an accident victim, worker and patient slowly erode. You need a law firm for some of life’s toughest challenges. Galfand Berger assists injured people. We have been doing it since 1947.

Our firm is proud to restore dignity and security to those who have been injured by automobile accidents, defective products or unsafe equipment and machinery, work-place and construction accidents, workers’ comp claims, medical malpractice, and other serious personal injuries.

Here are some cases we have handled in our fight against large corporations, insurance companies, 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. However, if someone other than your employer is responsible for your injury, you may be able to sue that “third party.” Examples of a possible third party include a manufacturer of unsafe equipment, a seller of dangerous chemicals, a non-employee car or truck driver, or a contractor or subcontractor working on your employer’s premises. Your third party claim allows you to recover damages not available in Workers’ Compensation.

Other car accident victims believe they have to accept what their insurance company offers. The confusion of insurance policies and coverages has made automobile accidents law a full time study. Accident victims need to 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. If any of these circumstances occur, injured people and their families should not hesitate to seek the advice of an experienced, trusted counsel.

Work accidents can be especially dangerous if they are caused by defective equipment, negligence or other factors.
