Knowledgeable

With many years of experienced behind him, Attorney Cruickshank is a one of a kind bankruptcy attorney. Got the job done with the ease and expertise I needed. I was also impressed to learn that his paralegal/assistant has served with him for just as many years as he has been practicing. Together th...ey make a great team. Would totally recommend them.

Made a stressful time tolerable

Gary is calm cool and collected and helped me through a time that was not fun or easy. Has a deep command of the process and pointed me to some great contacts in the areas of accounting, financial counseling and matters related to the orderly closing of my business.

A Trustworthy, Dependable, Fantastic Lawyer

When I was facing bankruptcy I first went to a recommended, store front, attorney on Blue Hill Ave in Mattapan who had signs promising low rates and good results. All of the customers, were, like I was, poor and desperately needing help. A few months into the legal process I found out the storefront... attorney, was charging impoverished people two times the amount Gary Cruickshank charged for his services. And his office is in a very expensive rental area of Boston. Instead of taking advantage of poor people, he was truly there to help people in desperate financial straits. He was kind, affordable, consistent, respectful, a rare, and bright shining, light in the legal profession. I trusted him with the well being of my home, my business and my life; and he never let me down. He is a man of integrity, honor and grace. He made a painful, scary time in my life, manageable. And I will always be grateful.

I give him a 10 for excellence!

I am a creditor to a scumbag. Mr. Cruickshank is incisive (goes right to the crux of the matter), succinct and definitely knows the law, "backwards and forward", that is, he keeps himself updated with all amendments to the laws as they occur....he must never sleep. Over 20 years, I have met many at...torneys and Mr. Cruickshank is definitely a 10 when compared to others in his field. I only met one other like him.
