Very good experience!

Gerard and his team did a wonderful job of handling my business litigation case. Gerard offered excellent insight and gave his opinion of what he thought would be the most advantageous solution to my case.

Excellent Lawyer

For over 30 years Gerard Glass has helped me close on three houses and also has helped me a few times with other problems. Just recently helped me a great deal with a problem I had due to the raising of my house he is very informative and knowledgeable he is also a pleasure to work with and very c...aring and sincere I couldn't have gone through this without him, I highly recommend him not just for his knowledge but his caring personality.

Home Sale

We recently sold our home, after 44 years. Our real-estate agent recommended Gerard Glass & Associates, P.C. in Babylon, for our legal representation. With title searches, surveys, town C.O.’s and permits, communication is essential; Stacie Baltrusitis was my contact person in the law office. Thro...ugh emails and phone calls, I was notified of any snags in the process, so I could clear them up. If I couldn’t, the lawyers took care of it. When time came for the closing everything went smoothly and quickly. We are now buying a house, and are using Gerard Glass’ office again.

Knowledgably, Efficient, Trustworthy

Gerard Glass & Associates has helped me with a multitude of things from Closings, Wills, any business paperwork, as well as recouping funds through the court process. His knowledge of the legal system in so many different sectors is second to none. There is no one I trust more with any legal needs!

Needed help from out of state.

I live in FLORIDA and need to sell a house in NY. Mr. Glass and his team handle all the closing documents. They always respond to my emails very promptly, and worked very hard to get it right the first time. I am very pleased I chose Mr. Glass to represent me.

  • 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.
