FAQ

Personal injury cases at Gersie Law are handled on a contingency fee, meaning you do not pay an attorney fee unless compensation is recovered for you. Before representation begins, our team will explain the fee arrangement and answer your questions so you understand how the process works. Once Gersie Law is retained, our team can begin handling the claim while you focus on your recovery.

Getting appropriate medical attention, reporting the incident, preserving photographs and videos, gathering witness information, and keeping important documents can all help protect a claim. When you contact Gersie Law, our team can review what happened, identify information and evidence that may still need to be obtained, communicate with the insurance companies, and help you understand the next steps while the claim moves forward.

Insurance adjusters investigate claims on behalf of the insurance company, and statements or documents provided during that process can affect how a claim is evaluated. When Gersie Law represents you, our team can handle communications with the insurance companies, respond to requests, review important documents, and deal with settlement negotiations so you do not have to navigate those conversations on your own.

Being accused of contributing to an accident does not necessarily mean that you have no claim. Liability can depend on the facts, available evidence, and applicable law. The Gersie Law team can investigate how the accident occurred, review police reports, photographs, witness information, and other evidence, and evaluate arguments raised by the insurance company. Our team can then explain how disputed fault may affect your claim and what options may still be available.

The timeline depends on factors such as the injuries, medical treatment, liability, insurance coverage, and whether the claim can be resolved through negotiation or requires litigation. Gersie Law helps keep the case moving while those issues develop. Our team works to collect records, communicate with providers and insurers, monitor important developments, prepare the claim, and keep you informed so you understand where your case stands throughout the process.

There is no single formula for determining the value of a personal injury claim. Medical treatment, lost income, pain and suffering, future care, liability, insurance coverage, and the strength of the evidence may all affect the outcome. The Gersie Law team works to document those damages and understand how the injury has affected you personally. Our team can evaluate the available information, explain the factors affecting your claim, and pursue a resolution supported by the evidence rather than simply accepting the insurance company's initial assessment.

Yes. Gersie Law represents clients in property damage matters as well as personal injury claims. These matters may involve fire damage, vehicle damage, homeowner or business property losses, insurance delays, underpayment, coverage disputes, or denied claims. The Gersie Law team can review the loss and available coverage, help organize supporting documentation, communicate with the insurance company, and pursue payment when a property claim becomes delayed, disputed, or difficult to resolve.
