With a career spanning over two decades, Michael Gruber has devoted himself to representing injured workers and advocating for their rights on both local and national levels. His work has not only helped countless individuals secure the benefits they deserve, but it has also shaped important legislative initiatives aimed at protecting workers.

Selected to the Super Lawyers list for 2021 to 2024, he continues to demonstrate excellence in workers’ compensation law.

Gruber expressed gratitude for the award, stating, “Receiving the President’s Award is an incredible honor, and I am grateful to WILG for this recognition.
