Gary is the best.

Gary was my lawyer when I was applying for my Green Card 26 years ago. With his help, now I am a proud citizen of the United States. He is a very professional lawyer whom I trust, a friend with whom can play game like a high school boy, a thinker with whom I can share my ideas. Very often, Gary makes... me feel he is not a lawyer, but somebody next door. Gary is the best.

Positive and Thorough

I have used Gary Libby many times over the last 35 years for both legal issues and general advice. My experience from working with Mr. Libby in all cases has been positive. I can highly recommend his work, both in content and thoroughness. Peter

A great no-nonsense attorney

Gary has been our family business attorney since we started the business 36 years ago and has helped us grow to a firm of over 50 people working in three states. He makes himself readily available and takes a practical approach to practicing law.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
