Insurance carriers begin evaluating exposure immediately. They may question fault or dispute the long-term impact of injuries. Our role is to conduct a thorough investigation, gather supporting evidence, and build a claim that accurately reflects both current and future losses.

- Permanent impairment
- Pain and suffering damages
Jay brings the strong arm with careful case development to strengthen negotiating power and prepare the case for litigation if necessary.
When negligence results in loss of life, the consequences extend far beyond financial impact. West Virginia law allows certain surviving family members to pursue a wrongful death claim. These cases require detailed review of liability, economic damages, and statutory requirements. Jay Gerber fights to hold the responsible parties accountable with rock-solid evidence and deliberate action.
