Why should I hire Gordon McKernan and the Gordon McKernan Injury Attorneys instead of another law firm?

An insurance adjuster wants me to settle without a attorney, what should I do? Should I get one?
First, the adjuster works for an insurance company. His or her job is to settle the case as cheaply as possible. Most likely, he or she will not explain to you all of your legal rights and consequences of your settlement. This is why it is a good idea to consult with...Read More
How long will it take me to get my recovery?
Every case is unique and has a different set of factual and legal issues. Therefore, it is hard to quantify the time process of each case. Our experience is that almost ninety percent of all cases are settled out of court, usually between three – nine months from the...Read More
How much is my case worth?
This is a very hard question. Many attorneys fall into the trap of answering this question without knowing all of the facts and issues. Worse, some attorneys intentionally exaggerate the value of the case to the potential client so that client will retain the...Read More

  • Good Morning Tim:

    I’m sending a short note to say thank you for what you done for me. Your professionalism and devotion to my case was with most honesty and integrity. I can honestly say that you way over achieved what my expectations ever were. It was a pleasure to have you represent me in this matter. Because of my experience with you in this case, I would gladly recommend a friend or colleague to you if the need was to ever arise. It was a pleasure to have you represent me.

    Thanks again for your help, support and services that you rendered on my behalf.

    - Chuck Methvien

  • I was very pleased to pick up the settlement check! You definitely brought us “top dollar” from the insurance company, got my car fixed, and my medical costs paid.

    Thank you also for guiding me through the whole process, I’m not a lawyer and wouldn’t have known what to do. I would never want to deal with an insurance company alone, that would be disaster!

    Once again: Bravo, thank you, and well done!

    - V. R.

  • If you’re looking for an honest law firm to handle your case, get G and his team. They changed my life for the better. I love G and his team. Thanks for everything! Thanks Michael & Kathy!

    - Moncel Palmer

  • When my kids were involved in an accident while on the school bus I didn’t know what to do. I called Gordon’s office, and they set my babies up with a doctor. When the school board gave me a low offer, my attorney fought to get us what we really deserved. I would DEFINITELY recommend Gordon to anyone I know of involved in an accident.

    - K. W.
