Derek C. Gilbert

I had a closing date that could not be met because of a bureaucratic administrative problem with the mortgage company in securing the title. It was extremely important for the attorney to call the company to discuss the solution. The attorney refuse to do this and/or even had the courtesy to return... my phone call. The result was the Buyer wanted out of the contract because the closing date could not be met. This could have been avoided if my attorney could have and would have made the effort to solve the problem.

I hired Derek Gilbert to handle a new residential purchase. Gilbert law firm delayed my closing from a Thursday to a Monday due to capacity issues/being under staffed. When confronted about the bind the delay had on me, the customer, Gilbert Law firm would not accept responsibility nor would they mak...e any attempt to accommodate the closing on the date specified in the contract. The delay impacted me personally and financially. Do not hire this firm if you expect service and professional behavior.
