Excellent Firm

I was referred to the Garau Germano law firm by a local firm outside of Indianapolis. Jerry Garau is very professional and easy to access. He responds quickly to questions and explained the process of a malpractice suit well. Jerry and his firm were able to settle our claim in the most favorable ...of conditions. The firm is very efficient and kept expenses to a minimum. I would highly recommend Jerry and his firm to represent you in a malpractice suit.

Excellent Lawyer and Law Firm

Mr. Garau was personable, professional and efficient in handling our case. He promptly answered any questions we had. He took the time to thoroughly explain each step of the legal process. My wife and I highly recommend Mr. Garau and his law firm.

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.
