Posted by Chris | October 07, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Work Injury

I have never looked towards pursuing a lawsuit before nor would I imagine having to but unfortunately I was injured at work at a customers location and thought that company should be held responsible for their employees actions. I reached out to Jefferson Gilder after other places such as Morgan and ...Morgan and NST “TV Lawyers” would not take my case. Mr. Gilder without hesitation told me right away that I had a valid claim and I hired him as my attorney. After over a year of back and forth negotiations Mr. Gilder was finally able to settle my case and get me what I deserved for my pain and suffering. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a good attorney. Thanks again Jefferson for all you have done for me. Respectfully, Chris

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.
