Without a Doubt one of the Best Attorneys in Pittsburgh!
Gary is a life-saver. As his client he was honest and worked hard to make sure my case had the best possible outcome. He knew the process, the people and took the time to make sure I was as informed as possible. Going through the court system is not easy and extremely scary - you need a lawyer who will shoot you straight. My case could not of turned out better, in my opinion I owe so much to Gary's personal diligence in working with me to bring it all together. I would highly recommend him as an exceptionally trustworthy, responsive and knowledgeable lawyer. Words cannot express how grateful I am to have engaged him as my attorney.

Garry Ogg is a very good attorney
I used Gary on a medical malpractice case. Gary went above and beyond my expectations and did the best job he could. My only problem with Gary came in the jury selection phase of the trial. i was not happy with the group that he picked. We lost the trial. However, medical malpracice is very hard to prove. Doctors will shade the truth and stand behind other doctors who make mistakes. I would certainly go with Gary if God forbid I had another legal problem. Bill Ogorodny
