Services
The injury attorneys at Baker & Gilchrist take great pride in helping injured people when their injuries occur due to someone else's negligent, careless, or reckless actions. With over 60 years of combined litigation experience, we can offer you the knowledge and assistance necessary to help you win the compensation you rightfully deserve for your injuries.
If you or a loved one believe that you have suffered injury by the negligence of a medical professional, at Baker and Gilchrist we understand that you are going through a difficult and uncertain time in your life. When you hire an attorney from Baker & Gilchrist to represent you, you are not only working with experienced attorneys Rex Baker and Caroline Gilchrist, but you also have the expertise and understanding of our entire team on your side.
When you go to a hospital, you expect that the medical care you receive will make you better. But with multiple health care professionals in hospitals involved in your treatment, the risk of medical error increases. Sometimes, inadequate patient safety procedures cause hospitals to commit serious medical errors and patients are seriously or fatally injured.
You trusted your doctor. However, you now suspect that the medical treatment you received was substandard and may have resulted in significant and even permanent harm. Your condition is actually worse - not better - and you are facing a growing list of medical expenses. Additionally, you are not getting answers from the doctor, hospital or nursing home about what went wrong.
For many patients with serious injury and illness, the local hospital emergency room, or ER, may provide the fastest and most effective course of treatment. However, many ERs in Indiana and other parts of the country have problems with overcrowding and understaffing. These problems can lead to long wait times for patients and rushed examinations by doctors and nurses.

Obviously a "free consultation" is a lie. Not the only one who has said this so kinda surprised no one has tried to go after them for false advertisements. I didnt even get a consultation before being called and told no. I gave the online agent VERY MINIMAL information about why I wanted a consultation due to it being obviously sensitive private information. So not only will the NOT do a free consultation the will NOT tell you why. Their secretary is rude as hell as well with a basic voicemail if "they said they arent going to take your case bye" instead of what a PROFESSIONAL would say like "we

I highly recommend Caroline Gilchrist, Rex Baker and their team. Caroline is the best lawyer to have on your side for a medical malpractice case. She and her team were very professional and always extremely well prepared. She kept me well informed throughout the whole process (5+ years from consultation to conclusion). She also walked me and my daughter step-by-step through the deposition and trial processes to prepare us. Caroline always had our best interest in mind and was very caring and compassionate. I'm very happy with the end result of our case thanks to Baker & Gilchrist's expertise.

These folks are dedicated attorneys who truly put their clients first. As a lawyer I'm stingy about who I refer my clients to for other legal matters. I want to make sure they get the utmost respect and effective representation. And Baker & Gilchrist always gets the job done! I highly recommend them for your legal needs.

I have known this lawfirm of Rex Baker and Carolyn Gilchrist for many years (decades, really). I have seen them evaluate cases for mutual clients, have seen them work on and complete cases, and they are always extremely well prepared and professional. I recommend them whole-heartedly, and without reservation. I have seen them settle cases, and I have seen them go to trial on cases, and I have read appeals they have been involved with. They are the real deal. The whole package. Honest, prepared, diligent, and ethically zealous advocates for their clients. They lead their clients through the law

Baker and Gilchrist have gone above and beyond for my father while fighting and winning my him the maximum amount allowed by law on his case. This firm has worked very closely with our family to answer questions and with getting our father in being awarded the compensation he deserved after a serious misdiagnosis. Not only did this team win the case but worked with us each step of the way to ensure the amount awarded would also be protected by giving us sound advice about contacting professionals about financial and estate planning would recommend Baker and Gilchrist to anyone needing representation

I experienced a bad outcome to a circumstance. Our life as we knew it was changed forever. After many tears and prayers we came across Baker and Gilchrist. A very strong intuition told us to contact them for their advice. They saw us through the worst time in our life. We had no idea what to do or where to turn. We only knew that something went terribly wrong and needed help.
If I had to do it over again I would definitely choose them again.
They are there when you need them.Without going into great detail we were pleased with the outcome. Thank You Caroline and Rex and staff for helping us when

I searched several personal injury attorneys, and none of them were concerned with my "small" case. B & G contacted me...they were thorough, patient, compassionate, and kept me informed all along the way. They were especially patient...I asked a lot of questions, and they always called me or answered me in a timely manner. Very down to earth, intelligent and so, so, kind. Caroline is an amazing and understanding woman. Everyone I dealt with at B & G treated me like I was an old friend they'd known for years...you just don't get that these days from most people...especially attorneys.
Thank you
