What past clients have to say...
Very Satisfied With Their Legal Services
In November, 2005, I was involved in a serious car accident in which I ultimately had (3) shoulder surgeries. Gassler & O’Rourke, P.C. handled my case wonderfully. They refused to accept anything less than the full insurance policy and rejected several lower offers from the insurance company. In the end, they forced the insurance company to pay me the full insurance policy. I was very satisfied with the services of Gassler & O’Rourke.

I Would Highly Recommend Gassler & O’Rourke
I had a bad construction accident back in 2004. Between the severity of my injuries and resulting surgeries my life was in shambles. Gassler & O’Rourke, P.C. could not have been any more responsive to the day-to-day issues during the duration of my case. I was ecstatic with the settlement of my lawsuit and I would highly recommend their legal services to anyone involved in a serious construction accident.

My Case Settled Quicker Than Expected
In July 2003, I fell multiple stories at a construction site which resulted in very severe arm and leg injuries. I was unhappy with my original attorneys and I changed attorneys and hired Gassler & O’Rourke, P.C.. They were very efficient and aggressive in the way they handled my case. My lawsuit was settled at trial for an excellent result and in a quicker time period than I was expecting. I would greatly recommend this law firm.
