He is an honest, trustworthy and competent attorney.

Gerald I. H. Street Review

Integrity, talent, experience and compassion are the qualities that define Gerald Street. If you want an honest appraisal of your situation or condition, he is the attorney to call. He is well known and respected throughout the industry and his reputation is well earned. I have retained his service...s on several occasions involving wills, trusts, real estate and elder care among other issues. I have been impressed with the results...every time. Look as hard as you want and you will not find better representation anywhere in the entire State.

The prefect combination of experience and compassion

We were so lucky to find Mr. Street - he was referred to us by our accountant and he and his staff have proven to be a God send. He helped me and my family navigate through a very difficult time emotionally and financially - the failing health and placement of 1 parent into long term care while prese...rving the financial stability for the other to remain in their home of 50 plus years. No matter how many questions we had, he and his staff were always quick to return a phone call, investigate an issue or re-explain an answer. As our situation changed, he and Lorrie (his assistant) were with us every step of the way. We are always made to feel that we are the most important clients they have - never rushed or left waiting for answers. Mr. Street and Lorrie have made an incredibly difficult, and confusing time, much easier. I can't recommend - or thank - them enough.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
