Megan Wernli Joins Bernard Law Group
Megan Wernli began working at Bernard Law Group 2015. She joined a group of attorneys that share her deep commitment to representing individuals. They understand it can be confusing, frustrating, or downright belittling to deal with large companies. An insurance company, risk management department, or corporation seems unbeatable when you are on your own.
Due to this disparity, Meg represents individuals against large entities. She stands up to hospitals, clinics, trucking and bus companies, insurance companies, and corporations on her clients’ behalf. Meg protects her clients’ rights with a deep commitment to serving justice. She works diligently in order to ensure that victims receive fair compensation for their injuries.
“So many times clients tell me what an insurance adjuster communicated to them about their case value. Adjusters often downplayed the severity of clients’ injuries before they hired me as their attorney.
This is usually a lie and an attempt to pressure the victim into an early settlement. Things change once they hire an experienced attorney who will actually listen and fight for them.”
