I read these reviews of David Gonor on here and realize how the PI case universe if extremely unfair... I realize the people that had 1-star reviews did not get the outcome they were seeking. My experience with David was so good I have a tough time seeing the same person that some people have reviewed. Kind, thoughtful, and efficient would be the descriptive terms I would use. He was given a messy case that had spent nearly 18 months with another firm that had not gotten anywhere from the start. On the surface, I thought this case was simple. We then found out many elements of PI cases in California even when the police report is clearly in your favor. Geico had tried to not accept any part of the liability because the client denied he was responsible even though he explained he was to the police on the scene. David went to work and had the ball rolling right away. Within 6 months we had progressed from filings to interrogatories and depositions and finally the settlement phase and frankly, I had given up hope on even getting the expenses paid. But David worked hard and I walked away with a cash settlement. VERY PLEASED with all the service Mr. Gonor offered and put forth in this matter. He was a great advocate for us and I can't recommend him any higher! #DavidGonorForTheWin
David Gonor is as good as they come. Can’t thank him enough for everything he did for me. Professional, hard working, and easy to get a hold of. Always answered any and all inquiries in a timely manner. If you are in search of an attorney, search no more. David is the real deal. 10 out of 10.
I got David Gonor for a injury back in 2018. Within the first two weeks he had found the owner of the property and send them a letter to let them know about my injury. David Gonor was very good to communicate with me about my case for every action that he was going to take or I would like to take about the case. We went into a settlement and I was very happy with the outcome I would recommend this law firm. Thank you guys.
David Gonor was a real pleasure to work with, very attentive. He took care of me! I was rear ended and had severe whiplash. He took care of my therapy and settled the case quickly. If you need a good lawyer that gets results quickly, look no further...
David Gonor took my personal injury case back in July of 2014. When he accepted the case and he stated I wouldn’t pay a dime if he lost/dropped the case. David sent me to therapy while negotiating for my compensation with the property managers of the place of injury. Months passed and I never heard from David. Near the end of 2014 he contacted me to tell me I was going to receive payment for the injury after all. However, I never heard from him again. I called and left voicemails and emails and never heard back. Finally one day he responded with “he suggests I should take my case to small claims”. After that I didn’t hear back for a few more months. Around July/August of 2015, I received a letter from David’s office where he states he has officially dropped the case. He gives no explanation for his action. Currently, about a month ago I received a call from a collection agency requesting payment for the therapy I received back in 2014. I explained the situation the agent and he stated he contacted David and he refused to pay the bill. I called David myself, he took the call and I explained the situation to him. He responded with “are you the one that was leaving negative comments on social media about me?”. I answered yes, because I reviewed his services on lawyer review website called “Avvo”. Laughed and said he would call me back with answers and he never called me back. Bottom line is don’t use this guy!
