Strategic, Thorough, Responsive Counsel for Contract Breach Litigation

Atty. Gibson and her staff were professional, timely and knowledgable throughout my case (plaintiff). They made sure the "big" corporation did not leave the little customer holding the bag. My family paid for home improvements that were never completed. Atty Gibson used the law to prove that the ...out-of-state corporation was responsible for the wrong its in-state agent inflicted upon me. She secured expert testimony and valuable research on all opposing parties. Her command of the law allowed her to have a qualified answer for every position the defense offered. It was refreshing to work with someone so competent. The defendants drug their feet, appealed and told untruths. Yet again, Atty Gibson was prepared. She was always two steps ahead planning for the best, worse and most likely scenarios. She was patient with my questions and frustrations at the slow judicial process as well. We won at trial, I was made whole plus some!

A Great Lawyer indeed...

Before coming to Attorney Gibson, I had been through 3 lawyers that only took my money not giving me proper representation in the case. This case was 9 LONG EXPENSIVE YEARS, however, through the legal expertise of Attorney Gibson she was able to: 1. Get the lower court ruling overturned. 2. Got ...the tenant who has not paid rent in over 5+ years evicted. 3. Got a judgement against the tenant for $50K+ 4. MOST OF ALL...got me my property back. Attorney Gibson's entire premise was LAW BASED...no shenanigans, tricks or any of the like...strictly, LAW BASED. She worked diligently with her staff doing the research, timely court filings and keeping me informed every step of the way CLEARLY explaining the law to me in terms I could understand. It was by the will and grace of my GOD and Father that brought Attorney Gibson to me...Let him bring her to YOU... Peace be with you...

Real Estate Litigation

I showed up in court in a wheelchair back in early February of 2020. I had been going back and forth with the roofing company that put a lien on my home after they failed to uphold the commitments made in our contract. I suffered multiple strokes in those two years, and I could barely catch my breath... long enough to argue my case effectively that day in court. While exiting the courtroom Attorney Gibson handed me her card and told me to give her a call. From the moment she handed me that card Attorney Gibson completely took over and handled the situation for me. I never had to lift a finger because she took care of it all. Today my matter is resolved and the lien is removed from my home. Thank you GLF!
