Firm Information

Overview

At Garau Germano, P.C., in Indianapolis, Indiana, we focus our practice on helping individuals who have been injured due to the negligence of a third person. With a heavy emphasis on serving victims of medical malpractice, we handle cases including birth injuries, failure to diagnose, delayed diagnosis, surgical errors, anesthesia errors, prescription medication mistakes and nursing errors, among others. We are ready to stand by you and support you in navigating such uncertain times.

With over 50 years of combined practice, our attorneys have represented numerous clients and recovered millions in settlements to help them safeguard their future. Notably, we won a $2.15 million settlement on behalf of a mother who lost her newborn and sustained a rupture in her uterus due to negligent labor. We also won a $2 million verdict for a patient who overdosed on radioactive iodine. Our track record stands as a testament to our continued efforts to hold the negligent parties responsible, even when they are large institutions.

The legal process can be daunting, especially when you are injured and feel helpless. This is where we step in. We manage your case, collecting evidence, assisting investigations and building your case to recover the full compensation you deserve, so you can focus on your recovery. We keep you in the loop on the developments in your case and empower you to make informed decisions.

We understand that seeking legal advice can feel overwhelming because you need to choose an attorney who will not only provide you with results but also do so empathetically. Which is why we offer you a free initial consultation, where you can come consult with us without any pressure. During this appointment, we understand your situation and present you with amicable options you can choose from. Consult us either in-person or virtually and let us help you through such trying times.
