Gary B. Fuller

I am in the process of setting up a trust and am looking for a lawyer to help me arrange that. I contacted Mr. Fuller around 2:30pm on a Thursday and spoke to his assistant. She said she would send me a questionnaire to fill out, and we agreed that Mr. Fuller would contact me at 4pm. His assistant em...ailed me the questionnaire. I reserved a small conference room at work, and sat ... and Mr. Fuller never called. He did not call back on Friday, either. I looked over the questionnaire, and -- not surprisingly for a trust -- it requested a lot of personal information (e.g., my full name, DOB, and SSN, as well as similar information for my wife and children; banking institutions and approximate balance information). That is all very reasonable and necessary information. However, Mr. Fuller's office explicitly requested that I return this information via *e-mail*. I am a computer professional, and I simply will not return a wealth of private information -- with a roadmap for identity theft and fraud -- over an unencrypted and insecure connection. That was not an acceptable security practice in 1994, and it certainly shouldn't be considered acceptable 20 years later. I finally called Mr. Fuller again the following Monday, and said that I would be more than willing to drop the questionnaire off in person and we could go from there. He personally reiterated that I should return this wealth of private information via insecure email. I told him I was a computer professional and did not feel comfortable doing that, but would more than happy to drop the questionnaire off in person. Mr. Fuller sighed heavily, and said (almost sarcastically) "you can certainly bring the questionnaire back in person, but you'll be handing it to my assistant and not me directly. Do you feel comfortable doing *that*?" At this point the conversation was over. Mr. Fuller may be a good attorney, but during my interactions with his office, he had little grasp of privacy or security, and was utterly and immaturely dismissive of my concerns and came across as unwilling to work with me. I will most certainly be retaining a different lawyer.

I have known James Tate for 45 years and have trusted all the attorneys in his firm. Gary made the experience of having to file Chapter 7 an almost painless thing for me to have to go through. He and his legal assistant, Karen Vasquez, are always prompt with answering messages and emails. I have t...o say that I would expect nothing less from this law firm.

I have had at least two significant issues that required careful guidance and legal help with over the past several years. Gary Fuller and his firm have always made themselves available at the time I needed them, to guide me and provide the documents and support I needed to achieve my objectives. P...unctual, practical in their counsel and fair in cost. Gary and the firm have been terrific to work with. Joel

Gary and his assistant Karen helped me with a bankruptcy that I was very apprehensive about doing. They met with me whenever I needed to- were extremely responsive to my often incessant emails. They worked around my schedule and met my every need with accuracy and care. It was such a pleasure work...ing more closely with Karen to obtain the needed information and finally upon the day of filing, I met with Gary and he was able to comfort me and walk me through the process step by step. I felt very comfortable in their office- the receptionist was always friendly and accommodating. Overall, I'd gladly refer Gary and his team and rate their services as excellent. It was not only a weight lifted off my shoulders when I completed the filing, but it was their warmth and concern that left me with the feeling of relief, that I have good people backing me up.

Mr. Fuller was hired to represent my wife and I during a very diffcult time in our life. From day one Mr. Fuller and his entire legal staff did an outstanding job in first meeting up with us. Hearing what we had to say and guiding us through all the legal issues that our case presented. When we ha...d a question for Mr. Fuller he was avaliable to answer our questions. After we had obtained all of our paperwork on the case, Mr. Fuller staff met up with us and quickly reviewed our information page by page and had the answers to any of our questions we had along the way. Once the paperwork was in order, we once again meet up with Mr. Fuller in his office. After he reviewed all the required paperwork, Mr. Fuller filed our case with the court system in short order. Mr. Fuller legal team keep us informed as our case proceeded in the court system with out fail. From the beginning both my wife and I had a specific time frame to have our case over with. Mr. Fuller met this expectation on time and our case was set to be heard and it was heard on the first date set by the court sytem. Mr. Fuller representations to the court were outstanding and in short order our case before the court was settled and my wife and I have been able to move on with our lives as we had hoped to do when we hired Mr. Fuller. Finally one great thing about Mr. Fuller being our legal represenative was this. Mr. Fuller advised us that if at anytime in the future a new issue that was related to our case came up, all we had to do was call his office or send in the paperwork and any documentation we have and the issue(s) would then be addressed by Mr. Fuller and his legal staff without delay. Over time we have had to use Mr. Fuller's follow up service several times. Each time as promissed, Mr. Fuller and or his legal team handled the preperation of all required paperwork with out delay and our worries were over with when his office provided us with the paperwork that he prepaired to resolve the issues that had come up. Clearly Mr. Fuller is an Outstanding Legal Professional who has always stood behind his work without exception. Today both my wife and I are clearly on our way away from the legal issues that brought us to Mr. Fuller and his law firm. For this reason if in the future we may need quality legal and professional services, both my wife and I will have no hesitation in asking Mr. Fuller for his legal representation and help in the future.
