In the best hands!

When one seeks legal aid they expect professionalism but Gary provided that and so much more! In additional to prompt replies, wealth of knowledge on my issue and the law, he treated me like family making it easy to have faith in his expertise. If you want honest, strategic, analytical thinker and... advocate willing to put in time and research on your behalf go to Gary G Becker!

A Amazing dedicated Man

I cannot imagine there being a finer, more dedicated or more caring lawyer than Gary Becker. He took on my son’s case with such passion and energy that we felt he had been sent as a guardian angel to look over us. He is not some impersonal professional who sees my son as just another client; no..., Mr. Becker shows genuine caring for my son as if he were a close friend and he has fought every inch of the way for his rights. He is a champion for justice. Mr. Becker is brilliant and so is his written work and advocacy in the courtroom. He is tenacious. He treats us with the utmost respect and throughout his representation, Mr. Becker has always kept us informed of all developments in the case, and has taken as much time as is needed to answer all our questions. He responds to every telephone call and email and is honest and forthright at all times. Mr. Becker is the noblest man I know. He has taken on a case of a stranger and helped him regain his stature as a young black man to have a life with his family. Words can never express the gratitude I feel for Mr. Becker for helping my family through this trying time. I will keep Mr. Becker in my prayers for years to come. We feel very fortunate to have had Mr. Becker represent our son and if he should come to represent you or a loved one, you will be very fortunate as well.

Criminal defense lawyer | May 29

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Gary G. Becker is one of the finest criminal defense attorneys in this country. That is not an exaggeration, and I know whereof I speak. I am a criminal defense attorney with 34 years of experience. I am board certified by NBTA in Criminal Trial Law. I have known Gary for many years and have worked with him fairly recently on a high stakes federal criminal case in Vermont. I frequently consult with him on my own cases. He is brilliant, hard working, and relentless in his pursuit of the best possible outcome for his clients. He is also phenomenally successful in achieving great outcomes for his clients; outcomes that very few, if any, other attorneys could have achieved. I highly endorse him."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Gary is in the top one percent of our profession. He is a brilliant litigator who thinks outside the box and works tirelessly to obtain stellar results for his clients. His clients are fortunate to have him as their counsel. Co-counsel are fortunate to have Gary on their team. While some lawyers are driven by their desire for fame or fortune, Gary is not. He is a sincere advocate who has a passion for helping those who trust him with their liberty. And Gary moves mountains to gain and secure liberty for all of his clients."

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.
