Truly Put Clients First

This firm doesn’t play games. From the first call, I knew they were professionals. They handled my son’s case after a playground injury and got a settlement that let us cover therapy and save for college. Grateful is an understatement.

Made a Difficult Process Simple

The team at Gelbstein & Associates made me feel like family. After a scary car accident on McDonald Avenue, I didn’t know who to trust. They answered every question, stayed in touch, and got me more than I expected.

Top quality

I’m a business owner and needed someone smart enough to handle commercial insurance. Mr. Gelbstein broke down the policy details and built a case that ended with a serious payout. I’d refer any client of mine to him.

Professional, Knowledgeable

After falling in a parking lot on Kings Highway, I was doubtful I had a case. Gelbstein & Associates reviewed the incident, laid out options clearly, and got the property insurer to settle without dragging things out.

Self-Assured and Competent Representation

Every text was replied by them. Each and every call. even when I was overanalyzing and feeling nervous. Berel and Ezra helped me relax. I'm quite happy I phoned them, and the settlement was more than fair.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
