Get Gordon McKernan ∙ The McKernan Law Firm Is on Your Side

Baton Rouge and Lafayette Accident Injury Lawyers

Gordon McKernan and the Louisiana-based personal injury attorneys of McKernan Law Firm are focused exclusively on helping clients recover full and fair compensation for their injuries or the sudden loss of a loved one.

We Put Injured Clients First

We know that insurance companies often attempt to get people to settle their case for an unfair amount. We find this practice unacceptable and will make them pay for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and more.

We represent the injured in Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Lake Charles, New Orleans, Alexandria, Monroe and throughout Louisiana, as well as Mississippi and Texas. Contact us to talk about your injuries, your medical care and how we can help.

We Are Different From Other Law Firms

At many other law firms, clients are treated as numbers on a case file. At our firm, you are a person. From our initial contact, you will know that we care about you — we care about what has happened to you, we care about what you're going through, and we care about getting the help you need. While you focus on healing, we will vigorously pursue the compensation to which you are entitled.

• We will not abandon you — Some lawyers quit on a case if they have not obtained a settlement by the one-year prescription mark. We regularly take — and win — cases that were dropped by other firms.
• We do go to trial — The insurance companies cannot play their waiting game against us. Our goal is to always obtain the maximum settlement for you prior to trial, but in the event a trial is necessary, we have tough, outstanding trial lawyers who are not afraid to take a case to a jury.
• We bear the up-front costs — From your free initial consultation to the resolution of your auto accident case, we do not get one penny of your money unless and until we win your compensation.
• Big or small, we handle them all — We take pride in our good results for all sizes of cases, and we have obtained multimillion-dollar recoveries for serious or permanent injuries in the most complex and catastrophic accidents.

Insurance companies know Gordon McKernan and the McKernan Law Firm. They know how thoroughly our attorneys prepare their cases and they know the strength of our litigation skills. Most importantly, they know that our firm will not rest until our clients have been paid maximum compensation for their injuries.

Over the years we have obtained notable verdicts and settlements, including dozens of awards of $1,000,000 or more, in personal injury and wrongful death cases involving every type of motor vehicle accident, including:

• Car accidents
• 18-wheeler accidents
• Motorcycle accidents
• Pedestrians and bicyclists hit by cars
• Boat and ATV accidents
• Other serious injury or fatality
