also known as Andy Gillin
Andy Gillin received his Bachelor's Degree from the University of California at Berkeley, and his law degree from the University of Chicago. "We love to fight for the little guy," Andy says of his firm GJEL Accident Attorneys. Each of the firm's partners started their careers in public service, and while their cases have gotten larger and more complex along the way, that hasn't changed the firm's focus. GJEL clients don't pay a penny unless they win.
Plaintiff Magazine profiled Andy in its April 2010 edition, naming GJEL Accident Attorneys "one of the area's top civil litigation firms." The firm was also featured on the cover of San Francisco Magazine's "Best Lawyers in America" August 2009 edition. With over $600 million in verdicts and settlements, the firm is on every short list of top plaintiff's auto accident and personal injury firms in California.
