Superb representation!

We hired Alan Gelb for a civil litigation matter. Mr. Gelb was thorough and prepared and he was knowledgeable of the law. Mr. Gelb was always available for questions, he gave personal attention and always returned phone calls. Mr. Gelb guided us through the process with ease; he supported us th...rough every step as our matter was as important to him as it was to us. Mr. Gelb is professional and brilliant and goes above and beyond to bring the best outcome for your case.

In the same position I was b4 hiring

All about $$ and NO work. Not prepared @court and answers legal questions with, "I don't know!" He even went to court and turned to the witnesses and told them to write the questions we wanted to be asked when they get in the stand!!!!! I've NEVER met someone so incompetent in my life!!! And then a...fter 9m I was told by another attorney, he doesn't have malpractice insurance and NEVER told me! I fired him and hired a Competent city attorney who will charge me for his "REAL"work.

You want an Excellent Lawyer? How about one who miraculously is not the typical sanctimonious extortionist sleezy type?

All right I normally do not write these things but in this case, its least i can do... Up until I became a single father I had never needed to try and find lawyer, let alone a good one... and the idea of having to go to court and fight that custody and support battle was overwhelming and scary. The f...irst few consultations with other council was extremely disheartening, most lawyers are slimey, and i wanted nothing to do with any of it.. luckily, I was discussing this very thing with a coworker buddy and he handed me Alan's card, and said call "call him, tell him i sent you"... I will never need or want another lawyer. long story short, Alan got me everything i asked for, he's one of the good ones, not out to get rich and rack up the billable hours...he's there to help. There is nothing worse than seeing good, hard-working everyday people get taken advantage of...Alan does something about it

Wonderful experience

My husband and I worked with Alan for estate planning. Alan really took the time to explain to us the process and really made sure that we were thinking of all situations that could come up in the future. Alan is very professional and I wouldn’t hesitate to utilize his services again.

Outstanding Representation

Alan did an outstanding job representing my case. I couldn’t ask for a more prepared defense lawyer who was very well versed in every aspect of the law. His professional and attention to detail were second to none. Highly recommend his legal services.
