About Gorham & Associates, Attorneys at Law

I deal with people whose lives have been damaged because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time. When a tractor-trailer company, an insurance company, or a nursing home puts profits ahead of safety, people get hurt and lives are damaged — and that’s a problem for all of us. I understand truck drivers. During college, I took time off to drive a tractor-trailer, and while I met plenty of great truckers, I also saw the dark side of the business. I saw truckers flouting safety rules. I saw people take handfuls of drugs and climb into the cabs of their trucks. I saw abuses of public safety that I never would’ve imagined were possible. We have to get trucking companies to stop these drivers. They need to monitor driver behavior, introduce safety tests, insist on drug tests, and be strict about hours of service. There’s a very strict statistical correlation between the number of hours a trucker is behind the wheel and the number of accidents caused by that driver, and when truckers up their number of hours or take drugs to stay awake, accidents happen. People are injured for the rest of their lives, and people die. I want to make the world safer for our children, and I want everyone on the road, from families on road trips to commuting parents to motorcyclists to carpoolers, to be safe. That’s what’s in my mind every time I take a case, every time I step in front of a jury, every time I fight to win for the greater good.

Jill Wright

I have delayed doing this review because I didn't know if I could articulate and describe how incredible Mr Gorham and his staff are and how grateful I am to them. However I, even if my words fail, want you to know, if you're looking for a sign that this is the right lawyer for you? This is it. I promise you won't find a more caring, sharp, quick witted, loyal, honest, intelligent, assertive yet gentle when needed, experienced lawyer than Mr Gorham.The January before the beginning of the first round of Covid I was hit in the rear by a semi-truck at a very high rate of speed while I was driving home in my Honda on a rural interstate. This accident WAS NOT my fault. The other party lied all the way to the end, said it was all my fault. It was my word against theirs. Mr Gorham & his staff worked so hard on my case. I knew what had happened and I was so grateful to God for sparing my life. We eventually found a witness. The witness was able to validate that my recollection of the event happened exactly as I said it did. My case took a while to settle outside of court due to delays in my care because most of my needed treatment occurred during the height of covid. There were many times those delays got me extremely frustrated. Mr Gorham was very patient with me. I was not the easiest client to deal with. Yet, Mr Gorham always reassured me that we'd get them in the end. Many times he talked to me outside of his office hours and even when he would be out of town, just to calm my anxiety. I know now, he was just the lawyer I needed. In those 3 years, I learned to trust him and felt safe as his client. He made me feel empowered and helped me stand strong in my truth.Eventually, it all worked out just the way he said it would. I'll never forget the day he walked out of a mediation where we were extremely close to finally settling for an reasonable amount over a dispute regarding a measley amount spent for the mediation lawyer's fee. I was thinking in my mind, what is he doing. Are we really walking away from an ideal settlement over this? Well, we did. I remember he took out a picture of what was left of my car and boldly declared to the mediation lawyer, "really, look at her car? And they want to argue over pennies? Tell them we'll see them in court." He gathered his things and said "let's go Jill." and as he strutted out of that mediation towards the elevator, I followed behind trying my best to look as confident as I could. I couldn't wait until the elevator doors closed to ask him "what are you doing!?!?". I looked at him and he had his head held high. He said "it's the principle of it." and "give me three days. They'll call and I promise they'll see it our way." Then we walked out of that office building. I remember how confident he was in the move he just made. His head held high with his chest stuck out, he put his sunglasses on. I looked at him and said,"OK, I trust you." He said,"good, you should!". I literally have never felt as empowered as I did in that moment. He was amazing, even a little cocky, yes. However, knowing him as I do now. I'm telling you in a case like this, you need him on YOUR side. I know I'd be shaking in my boots if I knew I had to be questioned in a deposition or cross examined in court by Mr Robert Gorham. He's intimidating, but compassionate when he needs to be. He was made to be a lawyer and he is the BEST THERE IS. So, exactly three days later, he called me. Guess what? They did exactly what he said they would. They saw it our way. We settled. In conclusion, if you need legal services, CALL MR GORHAM. He's the one you need. I PROMISE you there is no other lawyer in Alabama who will work harder and fight more for you than Mr Gorham. Tons of respect for him. This man doesn't remain a lawyer for the money, he does it to help others and because he loves it. I assure you he could easily retire and live in comfort for the rest of his life. He chooses to continue to fight for people like me and you! Also, Kim Bates is an amazing paralegal. Perfect team!!! A+++++++++++++
