I am an experienced plaintiff's personal injury attorney who has been practicing law for 30 years. Over these years I have talked to many women who, after being injured in an auto accident or due to the negligence of others, had retained other personal injury attorneys. The issue raised most often was their lack of personal connection with the male attorneys with whom they had dealt, even when they were pleased with the outcome of their cases.
While the gender of a personal injury lawyer should not affect the outcome of your case, it is important that you are comfortable with the attorney representing you. As a female personal injury attorney, I feel that women in Western NY need to know that they have the option of speaking with someone who sees their perspective and understands what they are going through after they have sustained an accident-related, potentially life altering, injury as a mother, daughter, wife, sister and/or businesswoman. That is why at Gelber & O'Connell we have worked hard to ensure that we have experienced, dedicated female personal injury attorneys.
Gelber & O'Connell has both the experience to help you with your personal injury claims and female attorneys to discuss a woman's very personal issues. Also, like our page on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.
