Mr. Geller accepted my case after others declined to take it on. After I explained my situation (what happened) Mr. Geller pretty much did all the driving from that point forward. He kept miscellaneous costs to a minimum and was very flexible with scheduling. We did most of our communications via email and phone, which was very convenient for me. His office is conveniently located downtown and next to a parking garage with ample parking space so when I had to come in, I had no issues with directions or finding parking (rare for downtown). Mr. Geller kept me informed of my case status from the inception and laid out realistic timelines and expectations for the case. What you see is what you get with Jeremy! I highly recommend!!
Jeremy Geller came highly recommended to my brother-in-law after a serious car accident. He answered every question and concerns he had. He was very knowledgeable, professional and compassionate. My brother-in-law was very grateful with the outcome and how everything was resolved. Thank you for all your hard work.
My uncle getting into an accident is never planned, but calling and getting such professional assistance definitely helps. All his questions have been answered and he has been treated with great respect. He is grateful he made the call.
Over the past five years, I have had the pleasure of Attorney, Jeremy Geller, Partner of Trapp and Geller Personal injury Trial Lawyers, represent my husband and I. Initially we were referred to him by our nephew that praised his expertise and professionalism, we decided to retain Mr.. Geller for my husband's Personal Injury lawsuit and were very grateful, delighted, and ecstatic that we did. During our very (and all that followed) first meeting, Mr.Geller and his staff made us feel very comfortable and left us with the piece of mind that our best interest was their first priority. They are very down to earth with great professionalism. His office is very warm inviting and professional looking and located in downtown Chicago. When speaking with us Mr.. Geller made sure that we understood any legalese terminology that we did not understand verbally and relayed ideas clearly, effectively, and succinctly in written format. He made sure we knew exactly what was being presented to us and what situation we were in and it was all positive. Mr.. Geller guided us throughout the entire preparation of the trial and prepped us from start to finish. He possesses knowledge of technical and medical information for case development and advocacy.He knew the case specifics inside out and up and down, as if he were there when it happened. He expresses concern and listens to you and addresses any concerns you may have. Mr.. Geller displayed knowledge in all aspects of the case, made timely arrangements, motions and case assignment duties. On an one ten point scale, with ten being outstandingly satisfied, my husband and I rate Mr.. Geller at a 10/10. We were very pleased with the outcome of this case, he worked really hard to satisfy us and he overly satisfied us.As a matter of fact, we were awarded 200% more than we thought we would receive. I highly recommend him for his expertise in Personal Injury lawsuits.
Jeremy Geller was great to work with! Very prompt with returning calls and inquiries and very helpful with entire process.
Jeremy gets the job done the RIGHT way! I couldn't be happier with the customer service of his staff and his professionalism and care for his clients! You will not be disappointed choosing this law firm!
Jeremy represented me following a car accident. The case was complex – with injuries requiring surgery and a lengthy recovery. Moreover, Jeremy had to simultaneously navigate the often divergent laws and procedures of three separate jurisdictions - the accident happened in one state, medical treatment was in another, and the car I had been driving was registered to someone else in a third state. Jeremy told me to focus on recovery and he would take care of the rest. And he did. The insurance companies who had previously been calling weekly “just to check in” finally left me alone. The hospital and physician billing offices let me be. Jeremy always listened to my concerns and responded patience and clarity. His legal skill and tenacity resulted in a successful arbitration award.
Jeremy did an excellent job getting my auto accident case settled quickly, in 3-1/2 years, with phone interviews, us mail and a couple of times to the office.
I got into a car accident and Jeremy got me great money in a quick amount of time. He helped me through the process and explained everything and I felt very comfortable. I would fully recommend in on any case.
I am not one for long reviews or a man of many words. But over a four year long case I must say I am completely pleased with the outcome. Never did I feel as if I was being ignored or left n the dark. Mr. Geller worded things so I could easily understand them with each and every phone call. In the end during trial I would have to say the sheer heart and feeling he showed when explaining my case and fighting for my case, was simply perfect! An amazing experience.
