What do you do when you, or a loved one, have been seriously injured due to the carelessness of someone else – or even a business?  Or perhaps you, or a family member, has been diagnosed with Mesothelioma. Not many people know what to do. Obviously, the first priority is making sure that the person who is injured receives the best medical care possible.

After medical care is addressed, most people do not know what to do next.

They struggle with issues like:

Do I need an attorney?

I’m hurt and can’t work – how do I pay the bills?

How do I pay for an attorney?

My name is Mike Gertler and I am the managing partner with the Gertler Law Firm, a New Orleans Personal Injury Law Firm that has been helping Louisiana residents work through their serious injuries and pursue Mesothelioma claims for more than 35 years.

And I would like to help you.

If you look to the far right, you’ll see a search box.  All you need to do is type in your question, and most of the answers or topics related to your question will be right at your fingertips.
