Forty Years Limited to One Side of the Case, From Chandler to the White Mountains

Inside Gorski Injury Law, the practice attorney Peter Gorski has run for four decades, split between a downtown Chandler office and a second location in Pinetop-Lakeside — with a docket that leans heavily toward the commercial-trucking cases he has trained on for years.

ORIGEN

Four Decades, One Practice Area

Peter Gorski earned a Bachelor of General Studies from the University of Michigan, a Master of Science in Judicial/Court Administration from the University of Denver’s Sturm College of Law, and his J.D. from Arizona State University’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law in 1983. He has practiced personal injury law in Arizona continuously since, building Gorski Injury Law into a firm that, per its own materials, is “limited to people who have been seriously injured, and the families of people wrongfully killed, due to negligent or dangerous conduct of another.”

The firm has operated from Chandler for more than two decades. In 2019, according to a report in the White Mountain Independent, Gorski opened a second office in Pinetop, extending the practice into Navajo County’s White Mountains region — a market with relatively few dedicated personal injury firms compared to the Phoenix metro area where Gorski’s original office sits.

PRÁCTICA

A Trucking-Litigation Specialty Inside a General Injury Practice

Gorski’s practice covers the standard range of Arizona personal injury matters — car, motorcycle, and bicycle accidents, and pedestrians struck by vehicles — but his continuing-education record shows a sustained, specific focus on commercial motor vehicle litigation. His published bio lists attendance at the American Association for Justice’s Trucking Litigation Group seminars in Phoenix (2012) and San Diego (2013), the AAJ’s Advanced Trucking College in Scottsdale (2018), a Keenan Trial Institute tractor-trailer seminar in Florida (2019), and a truck-driving training program in Billings, Montana (2019), among others. That is a meaningfully deeper and more sustained investment in trucking-specific litigation training than most general personal injury practices in Arizona publish.

The firm’s site also references DUI-related collision cases within its broader auto-accident practice, though its core positioning throughout its marketing materials remains squarely plaintiff-side injury and wrongful death litigation.

HISTORIAL

El tablero de resultados

Gorski Injury Law does not publish an itemized settlement or verdict table on its website. Client reviews collected by third-party platforms reference favorable outcomes without dollar figures attached in the material Awesome Attorneys reviewed.

CATEGORÍA WHAT’S PUBLICLY DOCUMENTED
Case results Not itemized by the firm; no public settlement or verdict table located
Practice tenure Continuous personal injury practice since 1983 admission (per the firm and Martindale)
Specialty training record Documented attendance at multiple national AAJ trucking-litigation seminars, 2011–2019

LA VOZ DEL CLIENTE

Lo que reportan los clientes

One reviewer, describing years of contact with the firm, called Peter Gorski “AMAZING” and praised his staff’s professionalism, adding that the firm “has a wonderful reputation in Arizona and especially in Tempe.” Another shorter review calls Gorski “very knowledgeable” and “friendly and professional.” A separate reviewer described him simply as “the very best personal injury attorney in the greater Phoenix area.” Awesome Attorneys did not locate negative or critical reviews of the firm in its research, though the volume of publicly available reviews was modest.

COMUNIDAD

Más allá de la sala del tribunal

Gorski’s practice history in the White Mountains — a smaller, seasonal market he chose to serve with a dedicated second office rather than fly-in marketing pages — reflects an ongoing commitment to a rural Arizona community that larger Phoenix-based firms typically reach only through call centers or referral arrangements. Awesome Attorneys did not find documentation of specific charitable giving, pro bono programs, or named community organizations tied to the firm beyond that physical presence.

RECONOCIMIENTOS

Posición entre colegas

Martindale-Hubbell lists Gorski with a “Distinguished” peer-review rating, awarded in 2021 — an excellent-tier rating one step below Martindale’s highest “AV Preeminent” designation — along with an Avvo Top Contributor badge and an Avvo Client’s Choice award, both of which reflect platform activity and client review volume rather than blind peer review of legal skill. Awesome Attorneys did not find a Super Lawyers or Best Lawyers listing, nor any Arizona State Bar Board of Legal Specialization certification, for Gorski.

LA LEY

El contexto legal de Arizona, en lenguaje sencillo

Readers considering a personal injury claim in Arizona should understand a few ground rules. What follows is general information, not legal advice.

El reloj de dos años. Arizona’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of injury (A.R.S. § 12-542).

Demandar al gobierno es más rápido y más estricto. Claims against Arizona public entities require a formal notice of claim within 180 days (A.R.S. § 12-821.01) and a lawsuit within one year (A.R.S. § 12-821).

La culpa se comparte, no es todo o nada. Arizona follows pure comparative negligence (A.R.S. § 12-2505): an injured person’s recovery is reduced by their percentage of fault, but not eliminated even if they were mostly at fault.

Los menores tienen más tiempo. The limitations clock is generally paused for minors and people of unsound mind until the disability ends (A.R.S. § 12-502).

EVALUACIÓN

La perspectiva de Awesome Attorneys

Gorski’s genuinely distinguishing feature is the trucking-litigation training record: attending national AAJ trucking-litigation seminars repeatedly across nearly a decade is a real, documentable investment that most general-practice Arizona injury firms cannot claim, and it should matter to anyone hurt in a crash involving a commercial carrier. Forty-plus years of continuous plaintiff-side practice, and the choice to keep a physical office in an underserved market like Pinetop-Lakeside, both speak to a durable, non-volume-driven practice.

The honest trade-off: the firm publishes no case-results page, so prospective clients cannot see the kind of dollar-figure track record that some competitors make public, and its recognition profile — a Martindale “Distinguished” rating and Avvo platform badges — sits a tier below the peer-reviewed rankings the largest Arizona injury firms can point to. For a straightforward auto claim this may not matter; for a serious trucking case, the specialty training is the more relevant credential to weigh.
