For more than 25 years, Bob Geimer has successfully represented clients in serious injury and death cases involving medical errors, vehicle accidents and dangerous products. He has become known for his work on catastrophic medical cases, including a landmark verdict in federal court of more than $30 million on behalf of a baby who suffered brain damage, and a $10 million verdict on behalf of a family who lost a loved one due to a heart condition. Bob’s verdicts and settlements total more than $100 million, and his trial experience extends beyond Chicago to DuPage, Kane, Lake, Winnebago and LaSalle Counties in Illinois, as well as federal courts in Indiana and Minnesota. As a member of the Birth Trauma Litigation Group of the American Association for Justice, Bob is at the cutting edge of the latest developments in law and medicine and is a tireless advocate for patient safety. He is particularly proud of his work on behalf of children with cerebral palsy, brachial plexus and other birth injuries, which has resulted in the allocation of tens of millions of dollars to provide essential medical, rehabilitation and supportive care for these children and their families.
