Gary L Smith

Mr. Smith was incredibly helpful when I was in a contract dispute. He not only guided me through the dispute, but gave me peace of mind. He was very responsive to every question and concern that I had. I will go to him again if I need any legal representation in the future due to his professionalism ...and reliability.

Years ago my husband and I went to Gary Smith regarding filing for my husband's Soc.Sec. Disability due to Parkinson's. Not only did Mr. Smith handle the case with expedience, but refunded almost the entire retainer paid because he said it did not require the time and effort he thought it would. Wh...en do hear of an attorney refunding you payment??? Since that time, we trusted Gary to do our Wills, POA papers and other matters. When we went to Gary regarding an investigation of an accident and death of a family member, he was very supportive and helped us find closure in a difficult case. If you are looking for a flashy high powered attorney that throws around jargon to purposely intimidate you ,then Gary Smith is not the lawyer you want. On the other hand , if you are in need of an attorney that explains and represents you openly and honestly, then I highly recommend Gary L. Smith.

Don't waste your money with this guy. You might think I'm writing this referral because I didn't get the verdict I was looking for but Mr. Gary Smith did not even make it to the final hearing date. I gave Gary Smith $2,500 to help me with an case that involved the safety and well being of my Six year... old daughter. Her Mother's new boyfriend was domestically violent and my daughter had witnessed it. The day before the first hearing Gary Smith demanded (pretty much held me ransom) and said if you don't deliver me $2,500 more before the hearing I cannot help you. My wife and I got together the last $2,500 dollars we had and delivered it to Gary Smith in time. During the hearing he was completely useless, my Judge even saying one time, "I was waiting for you to jump in Mr. Smith." after he failed to object to multiple lines of questioning that were in violation of court rules. So after his complete failure at our first hearing, showing that he did absolutely zero home work and was extremely ill prepared for the hearing that day, we began to question his ability to assist us. Meanwhile the case was extended and nothing was done on that day. I wrote an E-mail to Mr. Gary Smith explaining that I was upset with how he was handling the case. I was not offensive, rude, or ignorant. I kept the E-mail's tone very professional focusing on the fact that my daughters safety was at risk. Gary Smith replied by dropping me as a client, not submitting a bill to me, and keeping all of my money. I got an E-mail response from him stating he could not handle my case anymore and then filed to be removed as my counsel. So months later I was left unprepared, unrepresented, and missing $5,000 from our saving. Do Not waste your money with the laziest and most unprofessional lawyer I have ever met.
