About Peter Gemma

Peter Gemma, a native of Providence, Rhode Island, has long been influenced by the legal legacy of his father, Alfred Gemma. Educated at Clark University with a B.A. in English and a J.D. from Suffolk University Law School, Peter joined Gemma Law Associates in 1990. This family-oriented firm later welcomed his brother Mark, reinforcing their commitment to providing robust legal support within the community. Peter's legal practice concentrates on civil litigation, particularly in personal injury, products liability, and construction accidents. His successful track record includes numerous substantial verdicts and settlements, underscoring his dedication to achieving justice for his clients. Beyond legal representation, Peter is deeply involved in community service. His volunteer efforts span several local organizations, including McAuley House and SquashBusters, reflecting his commitment to improving lives in Providence. He is also a board member of the Rhode Island Burn Foundation.

Guided by a belief in accessible justice, Peter utilizes contingency fee arrangements to provide legal services to those who might otherwise be unable to afford representation. Outside of his professional commitments, he enjoys running, squash, and travel. Peter Gemma is admitted to practice in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island.

Hired Attorney Peter Gemma

The case in particular regarded my child being burned at the child care facility that she was attending. Mr. Gemma was void of empathy and very curt with me at all times. He did not return my calls within a reasonable time frame.

Hired Attorney Peter Gemma

There is no communication. I have probably spoken to a person four times within a year. I still have no idea what is going on. We had picked someone else for the case but they put us with Peter Gemma. I will never work with them again. I was warned by a few friends not to do it but I didn't listen. It is to late now so I will stick it out till the end.
