Excellent

I used Gerard for real estate law as a first time homebuyer. Gerard explains everything in full detail and in laymen's terms. Stacie is extremely communicative and always answered my questions. I felt like Gerard treated me as his family and truly wanted what was best for me. I would highly recommend... his office.

Amazing law firm!

I was first referred to Gerard Glass through my former lawyer, a retired judge who was no longer in practice, and I could not be happier with the results. In the past year, I have had a closing handled, an LLC created, and a legal matter responded to concerning a non-profit organization on which I se...rve as a Board member. The experience I’ve had with Mr. Glass, and every member of his team with which I have interacted, has been stellar. Mr. Glass is now working on a will/trust for me and a fellow Board member is using him for a legal matter. You can’t go wrong with this team.

Job well done!

Mr Glass did an excellent job helping my daughter through a tough emotional time in her life. Always answered any and all of her concerns with respect and understanding. His legal expertise in this matter was spot on, we had every confidence that the outcome would be in our favor and it was. I woul...d definitely recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation.

Mr. Glass assisted me with contract work efficiently and effectively. He made me know I was his first priority. He was very professional and thorough with helping me.

Very professional and knowledgable

We retained Mr. Glass for real estate transactions and consulted with him on municipal matters and estate matters. Each time, he was very professional and responsive to our needs and inquiries.

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.
