Hi, my name is Deborah Gage. My son's name is Christopher David Gage. In 2013 he was hit by…read moreanother vehicle from the passenger side door. He was in a coma for 31/2 weeks. We were told he would not make it through the night. A parents nightmare. My son has a friend whose sister is a lawyer. Through Melinda, we met Ken Shigley, Ken normally does not work small cases such as Chris's case. We were very blessed and honored that Ken took our case. I firmly believe that God puts people in the right place at the right time. From the beginning of my son's accident to the end. We first met Ken in the cafeteria at Windy Hill Hospital, were my son was taken for rehab. Ken has stood by our side throughout this whole ordeal concerning my son. While we were taking care of Chris's medical issue's, for they were life altering decisions, Ken was there for all of his financial issue's. We did not have to deal with any of it, Ken took care of it.
We were so overwhelmed with medical decisions, we also had financial issue's to deal with as well. When we met Ken, he was just a lawyer that we hoped would make sure my son's needs would be met throughout his life. I have never met anyone, especially in the professional field, that cares and treats their clients as a human being. And not like he could care less about you as a person, but only as a "meal ticket". If we ever needed anything financial or not, all we had to do was call Ken and he would take care of it. We never had to worry about the hospital bills, Ken took care of it. When the insurance was telling us they would not cover Chris going to Shepherd, we called Ken and he took care of it. Chris was at Shepherd Center for 7 weeks. We received bills, Ken's answer was fax me the bill. He took care it. Ken came to the hospital many times to see Chris, himself. To check on him as a person, to see how he was doing. He did not send someone else to do the job. That means a lot to you, especially going through events with Chris, it meant a lot to us. If we ever called him, he always called back, himself, He is an honest man with a big heart. When Chris was released from the hospital, there was a 5-K run benefit held for him. Ken ran that 5-K run. I do not know of many people that would do that. Especially your Lawyer. Ken is an honest, dependable (always there when you need him) man. I highly recommend him as a Lawyer, and blessed to know him as a person. By the way, Chris is doing great. He had a Tramatic Brain Injury. He is walking and healing everyday with the help of the Lord. Ken keeps up with Chris thru facebook. He also calls to see how he is doing periodically. God put this man in our path and we were blessed with the results of his efforts. Again, thank you so much Ken.
