What Our Client's Say

A letter from a state trooper…
I want to express my sincere gratitude for the support you all have given me. The legal representation you provided was world class. Livingston, Rogers and Haring (before he retired) represented me civilly, administratively, and criminally. I wanted to tell you how pleased my family and I were with their representation; specifically, the acquittal criminally by Robert Rogers and the exoneration internally by Chris Livingston. Both were gentleman every step of the way. They provided expert counsel and navigated Dallas Co./ Austin in a way that they made look easy. This was a very stressful time for me. Knowing that I had expert representation, and that the DPSOA was looking out for my best interest helped me sleep at night. I also appreciate all the hard work you all do in securing our financial future and protecting our retirement. I have been and always will be a loyal PAC contributor and strong vocal ally of the DPSOA.
With sincere appreciation and heartfelt thanks,
D.
Dear TMPA,
I am writing you this letter to let you all know that, approximately 10 months ago I was indefinitely suspended from the City of Waxahachie, Police Department. With the help of Bob Gorsky and his legal firm they represented me with the respect that I deserved and did not look at this case as any other. With that being said if I ever need an attorney for any other instance, Bob Gorsky and his law firm will be the first I contact. The representation I received was held to such a high level in which Bob & John went well above and beyond what was ever expected in this situation. They both kept me well informed of the process in this case to high levels of degree.
This is a Thank You letter for what TMPA and Bob Gorsky & John Snider have done for me. It means so much to have a chance to continue to work in the career that I have chosen for my family and for myself.
Respectfully,
George R. Pappas
Bob,
Just wanted to let you know that I went down to IAD to review the completed investigation this morning. My finding was “Not Sustained.”
I wanted to thank you and your staff for all of your assistance during the course of this investigation. Having been a member of another association and using their lawyers in the past, working with you and your firm has been a very welcome change for the better.
Thanks again!
David Crowley
Mr. Gorsky,
I just wanted to tell you that I joined the TMPA just after we got off the phone last week. I saw you do nothing but good things while I was employed with Dallas and always hear great things for what you do for police officers. I would like to always use your services shall the need ever arise.
Thank you.

Dear Mr. Lawrence:
On or about November 16, 2007, I contacted TMPA to inquire if TMPA represented personal injury claims while on duty. TMPA responded, stating yes to my inquiry. Another officer at Rockwall County Sheriff’s office recommended I contact Robert Lyon and Associates. In doing so, Bob Lyon and Associates agreed to represent me in the personal injury claim.
I want to personally thank Mr. Bob Lyon and Mr. Bob Gorsky and all of the staff at their firm for the handling of my claim and for the promptness and professionalism they showed to me and my wife, Karen. They settled my injury claim to a most satisfactory conclusion.

I cannot thank Attorney Bob Gorsky enough for his help during a recent incident I was involved in at work. It was extremely reassuring to know I had someone so highly regarded watching my back. While it certainly wasn’t a huge issue relative to others I have seen in my career, there were moments when I was quite concerned about the situation. Mr. Gorsky’s rapid and professional responses to my inquiries during this process were reassuring very much appreciated.
Thanks again to Mr. Gorsky and thank you, TMPA, for the being there when we need you.

I would like to thank TMPA and Bob Gorsky for all the hard work and support during my appeal process. I could not have won my arbitration without all that y’all do. My case was minor in comparison to a large portion of cases that y’all deal with, yet it was treated like it was the most important. I am very thankful and I feel that with your hard work, justice was done.
Thank You all,
Arlington PD/TMPA member
