Personal Injury

Car accidents can be complicated to deal with in the best of times. When it comes to an accident with an Uber or other rideshare service, filing a claim and receiving compensation can be even more complex. Today, rideshare services are incredibly popular due to how convenient they are, especially in areas where taxis aren’t seen as frequently.

I was very pleased have this office to help with my case

Mar 31, 2022, Corrennia

I had two traffic tickets 8 years apart and both times attorney Jonathan Kessous exceeded my outcome expectations! I had the tickets in Plainfield and Hillside. He is a terrific attorney, assuring, always available, extremely competent, knowledgeable, and has great communication skills! Both times he helped to reduce the charges with no points on my driving records (second time he dropped points from 4 to 0). Also his office team is very professional and courteous. I highly recommend using services of Jonathan Kessous and GGL!

I was happy to find that Dave and yessica at Garces & Grabler were the perfect individuals to choose to take care of my motor vehicle case during the early covid pandemic. My case was taken care of in a timely and organized manner. They handled my case in the smoothest and safest way possible through the challenging times of the covid pandemic. I’m grateful to have chosen such kind and professional people to take care of my motor vehicle accident case. I would definitely recommend them 100% to those individuals seeking legal advice/action!!!
