Got the job done

We have used John in many house closings and purchases. He always gets the job done. After reading the other review I was surprised because it is me (a woman) he usually communicates with. John personally comes to the closings and has been very helpful.

Prejudicial and ineffective

Along with my husband we hired John Garas to help in the sale of our house. He didn’t return phone calls, emails, etc. The two primary reasons I would NEVER recommend John: 1. He would only communicate with my husband. He wouldn’t answer my emails, return my phone calls, I never heard from him. A...fter my husband pushed, he did respond to him. Even when I sent a document for closing via email, it was not acknowledged, except to my husband. When the closing took place, only my husband was notified. It’s 2018, this is prejudicial, sexist and unprofessional behavior. 2. As someone we hired, it appeared that it didn’t matter to him if the house sale ever happened. We only used John because he was our lawyer in the purchase of the house. We would never use him or recommend him to anyone. My husband is appalled at his sexist behavior.
