Highest Reccomendation

I could not have asked for a better Attorney. When I hired Gordon I didn't know what to expect. He guided me through a long complicated case with professionalism and tenacity. He wrote an appeal when we got an unfavorable decision and got a new hearing. At the new hearing we got a Fully Favorable Dec...ision due to his skillful ability in the court room.

An Attorney that defies Shakespeare

When my wife was injured in an automobile accident caused by a distracted driver, she lost her health, eventually her career and became disabled. We dealt with a lot of attorneys over the nearly eight year odyssey that would follow with the auto insurance law suit and employment discrimination deter...mination. When it came time to engage a Social Security Disability specialist, we searched carefully and chose Attorney Gordon Gates. Gordon truly took our case to heart and fought for us with tenacity. He would not give up. The SSA hearing appeared to go very poorly due to my wife's disclosed usage of medical cannabis for her PTSD and pain relief. Legal by our state laws but a schedule 1 drug in the eyes of the federal Judge. Gordon was able to engineer a legal solution that satisfied both the Judge and the SSA and win a fully favorable decision. Gordon's chosen specialty, excellent character and his experience paid off. His service to us was both personal and professional. Don't get lost in the large firms where you may never even see or consult with an attorney. The fee structure is the same everywhere. Why not have your case previewed and then accepted by someone who gets the results that you desire and doesn't just go through the motions. Gordon Gates was the perfect ending to a nightmare that was thrust upon us and we highly recommend his services to others in need.

He did an outstanding job and I couldn't be happier!!!

I retained Attorney Gordon Gates in 2012 to help me win social security disability benefits for a chronic health condition. He was extremely knowledgeable about the legal case requirements, he knew just how to proceed, and he reviewed over 400 pages of my medical documents in support of my disabilit...y case. Although his office in is Maine, he can represent clients in Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts because social security involves federal court. My case was unusual and complicated but because of Atty Gates, it all worked out and now I finally have the justice I deserve.

I highly recommend The Law Office of Gordon Gates to anyone needing representation for a disability claim.

I highly recommend The Law Office of Gordon Gates to anyone needing representation for a disability claim. Attorney Gates and his staff are professional, courteous, and diligent. The Law Office of Gordon Gates took my case after I was denied SSDI. The helpful staff filed all the complicated paperwork..., and always had someone there who could answer my questions. I could call-in or walk-in and they would see me. Attorney Gates told me what to expect before we went to court, and also after court. Attorney Gates office settled my case quicker than I expected, and gave me HOPE from the minute they took my case. Words would never be able to express my gratitude to Attorney Gates and his staff.
