Reviews for Gordon J.
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Working with Richard Zimmerman and his assistant Holli was so easy. They were quick to answer any questions. Walked us through the every detail of the case. The outcome was much better than we thought. Will tell all my friends if they need an Attorney, go the Gordon McKernan, and ask for Richard Zimmerman and Holli, they are the team for you!!! Thanks for all that you did for us.
Working with the Gordon McKernan team was an unbelievable experience. My sister and I got into an accident, and the McKernan aided us every step of the way. The aspect I appreciated the most was their patience. My sister and I had tight schedules, yet they were able to work around them to help us with each objective. Specifically, both Caroline Parrino and Brandt Schmolke helped guide us through this entire process. I recall a particular intense when Brandt called me one morning to discuss settlement information. As articulate as he explained it, I asked him to email me a written-out explanation so that I could have a visual of everything he shared with me. Quickly, he sent the e-mail my way. Having him do that was so helpful for someone who is unfamiliar with a legal matter such as this. As aforementioned, My sister and I couldn’t have asked for better lawyers to work with like Brandt and Caroline. I strongly recommend them and anyone from the McKernan team.
I had a really good experience with them Mrs. Jessica Holmen is a wonderful lawyer she helped me with my case and was very under standing with everything and keep me updated on how everything was going my first time having to use a lawyer and it was amazing if i have to use one aging i would go back with Mrs. Jessica
I am incredibly pleased with my Gordon McKernan experience. From my very first meeting to the last, every individual I have interacted with was polite and professional. Brandt Schmolke and Caroline Parrino assisted me primarily, and they were the best of help; this process was made easy thanks to them. I have already recommended this team to a friend!
Not only did they take care of me from my automobile accedent, but I resently lost my father and needed an estate attorney. They referred a one to me that really helped in my time of need. Gordon McKernan really does want to be your lawyer for life. They are mine...
I Highly Recommend Jessica Brown & Her Team ! They Where Very Hands On & Kept Me Updated with Everything .. Thank U Again for Everything, Very Much Appreciated ..
Would definitely recommend using Brandt Schmolke. He explained everything through the whole process and was always available via phone or email.
Don’t hesitate call 225-888-8888 Gordon McKernan Injury Attorney’s .This law firm is very well known, respected and determined to achieve their Clients satisfaction. After my car accident, Attorney Erik Miller was responsive, understanding, and determined to get every penny I deserved. One day in particular, I was so upset and frustrated from taking time off to visit chiropractors etc. I broke down on the phone. Erik showed empathy to the situation and assured me he would handle it and he did! During my case, I’ve never had to wait long times for phone calls or for anything to be done. Erik basically is my family’s injury attorney he has represented my mother, sister and my brother! In the end it’ll be worth it, choose The Attorneys at Gordon McKernan Injury Law Firm.
After being assigned a lawyer who was very poor in communication, returning phone calls, and just being a polite person in general I was assigned to Mr. Brent Robinson. Working with him was a very pleasant experience. He was compassionate, communicative, and thorough. He kept me up to date about my case, explained everything that I didn’t understand, and was very effective as an advocate on my behalf. I would recommend him to anyone needing his services.
Very friendly and caring staff quick responses Fair Settlement amount highly recommended.
