Most knowledgeble and compassionate attorny I have known

Peter M. Gimbel has played a crucial roll in my workers compensation process. He answered all my questions and helped me with his unparalleled knowledge of the law. After my case was settled he helped me with some other related issues while he did not have to put his time in. I highly recommend him a...nd I am confident he will do his excellent work as he performed on my case.

Now as an Applicant’s attorney, I admire how he has developed into a top notch workers’ compensation attorney. A client is more than just in capable hands - Peter will not rest until his client gets what he/she deserves. Quite simply, Peter raises the standard of excellence."

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.
