At Dermer Appel Ruder, LLC we are passionate about helping our injury clients achieve excellent results and recover the money they deserve. We have in-depth experience as trial attorneys defending insurance companies and their insureds. Because we have in the past dealt directly with claims representatives and insurance adjusters as our clients, we have unique insight into how insurance companies work and what they need to resolve cases at the maximum level possible.
We use this knowledge and put it to work for you, our client. Whether you were injured in a car accident, slip and fall, construction site accident, trucking accident, nursing home abuse or any other injury that was the fault of someone else, we are committed to obtaining the best result possible. If you have suffered an injury as the result of the negligence or fault of another person or company, rest assured that our attorneys will provide the knowledge and support you need to help you overcome this difficult time.
