Great Attorney

Words can not describe just how pleased I am with this attorney! I prayed prior to selecting Mr. Gordon, and God sure was right. Ms. Combs, Mr. Gordon and the entire staff was GREAT to work with, they remained transparent, informative and showed empathy throughout the process. They actually fought... for me and gave great advise. If you're seeking an attorney, I highly recommend David Gordon Law.... Respectfully, Terry

Honest and Knowledgable Lawyer!

I contacted Mr. Gordon a couple of times regarding a vehicle accident I was in. His advice was spot on with no element of self-serving. This is the type of lawyer I seek out when I'm in need. Someone who makes me feel like I'm not just a number, but a human being. If I ever require a lawyer (and I ho...pe I don't), Mr. Gordon will be the lawyer I call.

Amazing Grace

You or someone you love experienced a traumatic event. Your physical, mental, spiritual and financial foundation was shocked and you're somewhere between being numb and hopefully relieved that it wasn't worse. The insurance "agents" coming at you from every direction. Call David Gordon. I promise f...rom the moment you meet him you will feel peace coming back into your life. His staff is awesome. He understands in every accident there's a human being & listens to you You will be please with your settlement or he'll take the case to court. Mr. Gordon was recommended by a former insurance industry insider as an "honorable attorney". Excellent experience during a terrible time in my life.
