Kenneth B Gorton

My daughter was hit by a car while riding her bike and received injuries that will still take quite a bit of time to heal. Thankfully, Ken accepted her case after the first attorney abandoned it. Ken’s attitude, experience, knowledge, and hard work proved to be a winner. He clearly communicated throughout the process and explained everything so we could understand. It was such a relief to have an attorney who we knew was always looking out for her best interest! Ken patiently negotiated the best possible settlement for her and we are truly grateful for this. I would absolutely recommend Ken Gorton to those in need of a professional and caring attorney.

Kenneth represented me for a rear-end collision and I could not have asked for a better attorney. He was honest, professional, responded to my emails in a very timely manner, and always made sure that I was in the loop of what was happening with the claim. I was very happy with the way Kenneth handled my claim.

Mr. Gorton came highly recommended by a mutual acquaintance after I was seriously injured in a multiple vehicle collision. I had been struggling to navigate the insurance morass for more than a year before discovering my injuries had not been correctly diagnosed following several visits to doctors and dozens of painful physical therapy sessions that were making some things worse. Once Mr. Gorton was on board, I was able to take a welcome break in not having to deal with this very confusing and frustrating issue as he took control of the case allowing me to focus on recovery. This gave me time and freedom to find a doctor who finally figured out underlying issues leading to multiple surgeries and more PT without the pressure from insurance companies to resolve the case quickly or continual questions about progress that seemed "too slow" for their company processes. Mr. Gorton's extensive legal experience and deep understanding of the insurance profession led to a positive outcome. He used several specialists to create medical, financial and historical reports in preparation for court, which ultimately convinced the at fault party's insurance carrier to wisely settle pre-trial. I appreciated his pace, counsel, reassurance and patience in dealing with court and insurance. His calm demeanor and tenacious advocacy were a huge plus. This case began well before Covid hit, continuing through many months of court closures and slowdowns. He was there for me and my family every step of the way.

Picks up the phone. Straight forward guy. Went beyond what I expected. Would definitely recommend.

I basically cold-called Kenneth after I found out that my insurance company wasn't complying with state law after I consulted the statutes myself. Aside from being down-to-earth with a frank demeanor, Kenneth is a realist. He was polite but frank when he explained the multitude of ways that insurance companies can avoid accountability by destroying the resolve and wallets of policy-holders through elaborate feats of mental and legal agility. He didn't promise any specific outcome, but he did agree to represent me--and he came through with a glorious vengeance. Previously, my insurance company had refused to pay to fix any mechanical damage sustained from two accidents to the point where my car was actually confiscated by the dealer for being unsafe to drive despite my having had the car inspected almost immediately prior to--and in some cases directly after--the accidents to establish points of reference. While I torched $600 on rental cars during this ordeal, my insurance company--who stubbornly only agreed to fix a single part for about $1,500 and refused to budge from our stalemate--abruptly changed its tune after Kenneth called on my behalf. Not only were they no longer trying to bully me into a paltry settlement that would have saddled me with an unsafe car and a bad faith claim from hell, but they were legally no longer able to talk directly with me, which alleviated a huge source of stress in my life. When Kenneth called saying that they finally agreed to total the car, I was ecstatic. He was the one who originally reminded me about GAP coverage and suggested I look into it, and he was in constant communication as new developments arose. Also, he was highly adept at presenting multiple options depending on the outcome I desired and persevered until the insurance company acquiesced to my desired outcome. In this instance, he was grit personified. Truth be told, Kenneth is the most selfless lawyer I've had the pleasure of working with, and I could not be more impressed with the quality of his work, his tenacity, and the attention to detail he pays to ensure that his clients receive the best outcome they can given their particular circumstances. He thoroughly answered any questions I had along the way, and he really came through for me during a tumultuous transition in my life. There is no way I would have gotten these results had I tried to take on the company myself, especially when I learned how tightly they can circle the wagons to avoid opening the company coffers any more than they can get away with. I have generally had a good relationship with this company, but in this instance, I caught a glimpse of the seedy underbelly of the industry--and it was ugly. Thank God for principled consumer advocates like Kenneth. He was well worth the legal services he offered, and then some. I could not be more appreciative, and if there were a rating above five stars, I'd give him that. And to Kenneth personally--thank you for giving me my life back when I had all but lost hope. This review is long overdue, and if I could give twice the praise I am now, it'd only be half of the praise you deserve for untangling this mess. You've made a huge difference in my life, so I can only imagine what you've accomplished for others. Rock on, rock star.
