Attorney Information
Overview
Ben Gerber is a Georgia workers’ compensation attorney with more than two decades of experience representing injured workers.
His career started on the defense side. After returning to Georgia in 2001, he spent three years working for insurance defense firms, learning how carriers evaluate claims, build strategies, and decide when to fight. That experience shaped how he approaches every case today. In 2004, he moved to a plaintiffs’ firm handling personal injury and workers’ compensation matters and has represented claimants ever since.
In 2010, Ben founded his own Atlanta-based firm focused exclusively on Georgia workers’ compensation law. In 2012, he opened a second office in Athens and a third in Columbus in 2022. In 2026, he and partner Natalie Elkins established Gerber & Elkins, bringing together a team of six attorneys representing injured workers across Georgia.
