Would highly recommend!

Gary was recommended to us after an attorney that we randomly selected did nothing to ease our financial difficulties. We had very little contact with the original attorney and she created a debt repayment plan that did not reduce our monthly payments. Gary was very understanding of our situation a...nd was able to create a plan that saved us thousands each month. He was very sincere and dedicated to working with us and our creditors to obtain a fair payment plan that was acceptable by all parties involved. He was personally involved in every step of the process. I would highly recommend Gary to anyone ever needing an attorney for financial hardship.

Gary Short is an excellent attorney/advocate

To begin with, Gary provided a free very THOROUGH consultation of my case (over the phone--which was important because I was too busy to come into anyone's office unnecessarily). During which he listened very carefully to the facts. He did not just assume that my case was like others he had heard be...fore, and I was impressed by this. After listening to the facts, and asking some question, he provided my options. This also impressed me, because it was clear he was knowledgeable in his area and this was all over the phone in the initial interview for FREE. Gary provided an up front estimate of his services. After I hired Gary, he stood by me, like a good friend every step of the way. My case was complicated and my life was hectic. I was recently divorced, and was being sued by some opportunistic out of state tenants. My insurance company bailed on me and I was up to my ears in debt with ridiculously high interest rates. I was a single mother, full time employee, in the midst of relocating for the job, business owner (landlord), up to my ears in debt with ridiculously high interest rates. I am a type A, attention to detail, person and I was literally overwhelmed (to tears) by my circumstances. Gary Short was the rock, that I needed and depended on. His work and attention to detail helped me to concentrate on the rest of my life, resting assured that he had the legal matters covered. What he said he would do, he did. What he said would happen, happened and along the way, he treated me like he had my back. He had my best interest at heart, like a good friend. He did an excellent job. Every step of the way, he explained all my options to me in a manner that enabled me to make informed decisions. He provided recommendations and I trusted his judgement and he did not fail me. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case. I HIGHLY recommend Gary Short.

Excellent attorney

I was referred to Gary Short after we were forced to close my husband's business. Our case seemed somewhat complicated with both personal and business related financial issues. Gary handled everything without difficulty. He was knowledgeable and immediately inspired our confidence. He was always... our advocate. I have needed his expertise twice since then and again was pleased. I would highly recommend him to anyone with a simple or complex financial issue.

Not Shorted

I had never imagined that I would be involved in filing personal bankruptcy and did not know any attorneys who specialized in that area of law. Mr. Short was very creative with my case, saved me money, made an unpleasant experience at least bearable, and gave me a dignified way to reorder my finance...s and pay my debts. I highly recommend Attorney Short to anyone who needs his services.

Excellent Results!

Gary's experience and expertise regarding bankruptcies and debtor negotiations was a tremendous help in my case, I am glad that I hired him and he was very professional and spent time explaining complex matters in a way that was easy to understand. I was very happy with the entire experience and r...esults he produced. I would highly recommend him.
