The Gilbert Law Group, P.C. - Arvada, CO

Nationwide Leaders in Automotive Product Liability

When an automobile fails to protect you or your loved ones in a crash, it is not just an accident-it is a devastating failure of engineering and corporate responsibility. For over forty-five years, The Gilbert Law Group, P.C., located in Arvada, Colorado, has stood as one of the most powerful and respected plaintiff advocacy firms in the United States. Founded and led by legendary trial lawyer James L. Gilbert, a 1968 NYU Law graduate and member of the prestigious, invitation-only Inner Circle of Advocates, the firm specializes in complex, high-stakes product liability litigation against the world's largest automotive manufacturers. Under his fearless leadership, the firm has recovered more than $1 billion in jury verdicts and settlements for catastrophically injured consumers.

The course of Jim Gilbert's life and practice was forever changed in 1978 when his young daughter survived a horrific accident, and he took on a high-profile lawsuit representing a family who perished in a Ford Pinto gas tank explosion. Realizing his calling, Jim dedicated his entire practice to battling corporate giants. The Gilbert Law Group, P.C. is unique in that it houses its own dedicated engineering department and utilizes advanced crash-testing facilities to scientifically prove manufacturing and design defects. If you need to hire an attorney with the resources, fearlessness, and technical capability to challenge multi-billion-dollar car companies, The Gilbert Law Group, P.C. is unparalleled.
