Ms. Gelof explains, "Helping people is why I became an attorney. When I meet with clients, they are usually in pain due to the injuries they have suffered during an accident, and they are overwhelmed by their medical condition, medical bills, lost wages and phone calls from insurance companies. They need someone to help them. When they walk out the door of my office following our initial meeting, I strive to have them feel less stressed and anxious about their unfortunate situation. They now have me and my entire team to help them through the legal process." Ms. Gelof provides her clients a unique perspective of their cases due to her previous representation of defendants and now plaintiffs in personal injury cases. This perspective helps her clients resolve or litigate their cases successfully. Ms. Gelof and the T&R team communicate with our clients so they make fully informed decisions every step through the process.
