An injury can leave you with medical bills, time away from work, and uncertainty about what comes next. At Gebhard Law Office, you can speak directly with Karl Gebhard about what happened and whether the firm can help.
Karl represents injured people in Milwaukee and elsewhere in Wisconsin. His approach combines personal attention with experience in litigation and trial work.
Start with the facts of your situation

You do not need to know whether you have a claim before calling. An initial conversation is a chance to ask questions and learn what information may be useful.

Preparing for a case evaluation
- Write down when and where the incident happened.
- Gather available photographs, reports, and witness information.
- Keep medical bills, treatment information, and records of missed work.
- Bring insurance letters or other communications about the incident.
- List the questions you would like to discuss.
Call promptly if you are considering a claim. Deadlines and notice requirements depend on the circumstances, and an attorney can help identify which rules may apply.
Questions about costs and outcomes
Ask about legal fees, case expenses, and the proposed representation agreement during your consultation. No outcome or recovery amount can be promised. A case evaluation depends on the facts, evidence, applicable law, and other circumstances.
