General Practice

At The Law Offices of Berger & Gammage, we have a collection of lawyers and staff whose skills and talents are able to complement each other in such a way as to allow us to effectively engage in general practice cases.  Because general practice often involves crossover into different areas of specialty, you can be assured the specific elements of your case are being handled by the most qualified personnel. 

Areas of general practice law may include the following:

Domestic relations

When it comes to the already delicate nature of legal issues arising out of family relationships, it is important for your legal counsel to take the proper steps necessary to understand your specific situation and needs.  At Berger & Gammage, we want fast, effective resolutions for all of our clients, and when it comes to domestic relations we feel this is extremely important.

Since legal relationships among family members are governed by state law, it is important to choose legal representation deeply rooted in understanding the requisite laws and interpretations therein affecting your case.  At Berger & Gammage we work everyday with the laws and legal system of the state of Indiana, and we have the understanding necessary to pursue your domestic objectives.

Domestic Relations cases may include the following:

Divorce
Domestic Violence
Child Custody
Child Support
Adoptions
Guardianships
Spousal Support
Premarital Agreements
Visitation Rights

Personal Injury

We understand monetary compensation many times does not make-up for the physical or emotional harm you or your loved one has suffered as a result of the negligence of another. At Berger & Gammage, just as it is with every case we take, our goal is to pursue that which you desire. As an injured party you have rights. If maximum compensation is the target outcome you desire, then that is exactly what we will dedicate our resources to achieving.

We represent personal injury cases pertaining to the following:

Transportation Accidents
Product Liability
Medical Malpractice
Work Related Injuries
Wrongful Death
Slip and Fall
Injuries of the Head and Spine

Collections

Because cash flow is the lifeblood of any business, timely collection of accounts receivable is vital to ensure long-term organizational health. When you are a creditor, whether commercial, business, or health care provider, etc. and you are experiencing the delinquency of a debtor, legal action is not only necessary at times, but it can also be the most cost effective means of recovering the money owed to you. Allow your staff and personnel to focus their attention on delivering your product or service offerings to new and paying customers, and allow our law offices to pursue the legal action required to collect on old accounts.

Workman’s Compensation

If you were injured on the job, you have the right to fixed monetary awards as decided upon by federal and state workers’ compensation laws. The idea behind these laws was to make for an easier and faster process for you – the employee – to receive your award, while at the same time limiting the financial risk for the employer. Though workers’ compensation laws eliminate the need for litigation, we are more than happy to assist you in the claim process and distribution of your benefits.
