A Excellent Negotiator

Alan represented me in municipal court for landlord/tenant complaint, and was very good in arranging a great deal for me.

Represented me for an injury I sustained from a fall.

Alan J. Gelb represented me when I was injured by falling on a friend's outdoor stairs. I suffered a torn quadriceps and was unable to drive and work was difficult. The insurance company was placing the blame on me and did not want to cover me for the pain and medical expenses incurred. Alan Gelb d...ealt with the insurance company and after some very difficult negotiations, he helped me receive a very suitable settlement. I feel he is an excellent attorney and has the intelligence, knowledge, and tenacity to deal with anyone and prevail. Should the occasion arise in the future, I would hire Alan Gelb instantly.

The best lawyer for all of your legal needs!

I used Alan for my divorce as well as subsequent cases for support and custody. When I first met him, I was nervous. After meeting him, I was confident. He got me a great settlement that greatly benefited the kids. Every time there is an issue with custody, support or expenses, Alan does a great ...job getting the judge or master to rule in our favor. In fact, one time, when my ex took us to court to lower the amount of support, Alan noticed things not reported before and we ended up having it increased by almost $200 per month. Alan is the best! You definitely want to use him! He is always available to talk even at night and weekends. Definitely call him for any legal needs!

Excellent lawyer

From the first meeting with alan i got a very good feeling about his experience as a lawyer. i had both a criminal and a civil case (two separate times). He treated me as his brother in letting me know what he could do for me, he was a straight shooter telling me both worst and best case scenarios i...n both cases. In court he was very smooth in letting the DA and judge know his objections and why. In the criminal case he got my charges lowered,and in the civil case, even though i had limited tort insurance, he got us a substantial out of court settlement. In the civil case i didnt even have to appear in court to fight with the insurance company. I would recommend Alan anytime to be on your side in the courtroom. Icouldnt have asked for a better lawyer. I will also be using him for personal needs in the near future as he will be drawing up my will.

Excellent

Alan represented my son in a criminal case. He has also given me legal advice on many different occasions. He is honest, reliable, and trustworthy. I would recommend Alan to anyone I know who is looking for an attorney..
