Why Baker & Gilchrist?

At Baker and Gilchrist we have consciously decided to keep our law firm small so that we can provide true personal service to our clients during what is usually one of the most difficult and frightening events in their lives. We have the experience and training to provide you with the best advice possible with a combined litigation experience of over 46 years. We keep current on new developments in the law and we have experience with the most up to date trial techniques, including focus groups, jury consultants, and video settlement demands. We have a registered nurse on staff who assists us in reviewing medical negligence claims and we have relationships with physician experts in a variety of medical specialties throughout Indiana and across the country who are available to review your claim. We advance all expenses and therefore do not ask for you to contribute any out of pocket money before you even know if you have a valid claim.

While the offices of Baker & Gilchrist are located in the West Metropolitan Indianapolis, our practice and experience reache across the state of the indiana.

Caroline Gilchrist has a unique perspective of having defended claims filed by people injured due to the negligence of others, including physicians or other healthcare providers. This experience gives her the ability to anticipate the defense that may be raised by defendants and work toward defeating them. Rex Baker has represented only people injured due to the negligence of someone else for his entire 21 year career and has experience in just about every area of personal injury litigation. At Baker and Gilchrist we have a proven track record of handling complex cases some of which have resulted in either settlements or jury verdicts ranging from $10,000 to several million. Our biographies are posted on our website for you to review so you may know who you are hiring and our experience.

If you have been seriously injured or a love one has been killed or injured, please telephone or contact us through this website. We can help, whether it is an injury from medical malpractice, a birth injury including children with CP, automobile and trucking accidents, wrongful death claims, or injury or death at a construction site, as well as many other kinds of claims.

The most common concern we hear from prospective clients is “I don’t want to be like one of those people who sue.” There is such a stigma in our culture against “lawsuits” from the media, including T.V. shows, movies and magazines, that there is a “conventional wisdom” that there are too many frivolous lawsuits and that everyone who seeks accountability for the negligence of others is just out to “hit the lottery” and “jackpot justice.” We have all heard them, but they are not all true. Yes, there are some examples of unusual cases like the McDonald’s coffee case, but they are the rare exception. The vast majority of people who talk to lawyers are just like you - people who find themselves in the middle of life changing circumstances because of no fault of their own and need help. Your bills may be piling up, you may have lost the main source of income for your family and you are not sure how your going to make it. You may have a child that was injured at birth and now you wonder how are you going to pay for all the needs your child will have the rest of their life. If we can not help you we will tell you why or refer you to an attorney who can. Please call and get the help you and your family need now. Let us lead you through the law.
