Attorney Greg Murphy and his Paralegal Gayleen were fantastic, responsive and always upfront about the steps and procedures of the case. They both were there to answer any questions I had in a timely and professional manner. I would highly recommend Attorney Greg Murphy to anyone who is involved in a motor vehicle incident. Get Gordon, Get it done.
Very quick response times from Hannah Pazzini, no matter what time of day she was always there to help me with any and all question. They helped me to get the money I needed to get my life back in order after a major car accident. Hannah was very kind and passionate about getting us on our way to the end of our settlement. Once my insurance company got their end finalized, Hannah was right on it to get the money straight to us. She made the entire claim process tolerable and actually made it make sense. If I had to pick a injury attorney for the rest of my life I’m picking these guys every time! True professionals.
Courtney and Chelsea did an amazing job!!!! So thankful they were on my team. Would call them again and recommend to any friend or family!!! They helped me in my time of need and protected me from the insurance company.

I have had a wonderful experience at Gordon McKernan. Everyone I came in contact with was informative and concerned about my thoughts and concerns. Special thanks to Brent Robinson for his service on my behalf. He and Clare(whom I know I probably worried to death lol) were great and always helpful no matter what or when I needed clarity/questions. I would highly recommend Gordon and his knowledgeable team. Thank you….
Justin Glenn took over my claim a few months after it was originally assigned to another attorney. Justin was there anytime I had a question. Even if we hadn’t spoke for a few weeks, he was calling to check on me or just to see how I was doing or/if I needed anything Let’s face it, things don’t happen overnight, but my claim was eventually settled. If you are looking for a really good attorney with the McKernon Law Firm, ask for Justin Glenn. I know it sounds corny, but Justin always has a plan and can get it done.
I recommend Gordon and his associates for life! I know his lawyers are busy and Sonny my lawyer was very professional and helpful during this time of hardships. I appreciate you and what you have done for me!

Reviews
These client and peer reviews are from the Martindale-Avvo Legal Network.
All Members and Associates are members of the Louisiana State Bar. Select Members and Associates are also members of Mississippi State Bar, Alabama State Bar and Texas State Bar.
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
