Outstanding lawyer that got us through a difficult situation

Our family business was in a tough situation, first facing legal charges and finally buying out the other owner. Gerrard kept us calm and walked us through everything step by step so we were fully in the loop throughout the process. He genuinely cared for our family and understood everything my famil...y went through in the past and was going through at that time. We will forever be grateful for his unconditional support and professionalism. I highly recommend him in your next business law matters because he is simply the best there is! Thank you so much Gerrard!!!

The BEST Lawyer-truly one of a kind!

I could not recommend anyone better. I was referred to Gerrard who came highly recommended by another law firm that did not specialize in the matter I was looking to address. From our initial conversation Gerrard was incredibly knowledgeable, empathetic, and confidently motivated. It was the best dec...ision I could have made! His initiative and diligence, not to mention, the time he took to help me understand each step to our strategy for the desired outcome exceeded all expectations. I was so impressed with his level of communication, attention to detail, and patience throughout the process -all extremely comforting given the difficult and sensitive circumstances. The settlement he achieved for me was beyond favorable in both a timely and cost effective manner. I will forever be grateful to Gerrard Grant and the phenomenal litigation work he does! 10/10 Recommend -If you’re looking I would personally suggest you look no further he is exceptional at what he does.

Successful resolution to tax dispute

After a CPA we hired could not settle a tax dispute with the IRS we found another CPA who looked at our file and immediately referred us to Mr. Grant. Mr. Grant took great patience in writing several letters to the IRS and conducting phone calls on our behalf with the IRS, Mr. Grant was successful ...in the resolution of our claim for the entire amount in dispute plus interest. We are very happy with the professional advice Mr. Grant gave us while presenting our case to the IRS. His patience, persistence and diligence was unwavering. We are very grateful to Mr. Grant for his knowledge of tax law and the kindess shown to us. We would have no hesitancy in hiring Mr. Grant for future representation or in recommending him.

The IRS Audit Report Changes to our 2016 Form 1040

If I have learned anything in my life, it is to hire a great lawyer. Gerrard Grant met with my husband and I after a friend highly recommended Mr. Grant as the attorney to solve our 2016 Form 1040 puzzle. Late in 2018 I realized that my personal replies to all the threatening communication rece...ived from the IRS was fruitless. I was frustrated and emotionally exhausted. Plus all of the underpaid tax owed was immediately paid to the Treasury and identified as a mis-calculation by our accountant and due in 2016 Personal Income Tax. Yet the IRS continued to harass and threaten us with underpayment penalties and mounting interest fees. We retained Gerrard Grant to handle our case, and although this situation was unique, his tenacity and skillset navigated his plan through profession contacts, tax courts, appeals, and demonstration of IRS tax code inconsistency. It is now 2021, and Gerrard Grant stood fighting our battle through the audit. There are few taxpayers who come out ahead against the IRS, but soon our struggle will be over. The Department of the Treasury admitted changes to our 2016 Form 1040 resulting in refund. Thank you Mr. Grant.

Owner

I retained the services of Gerrard a few months ago and in a short time he has in my opinion proven to be worth every penny! My relationship with Gerrard started with him drafting, finalizing and executing an operating agreement. I would especially highlight the patience Gerrard demonstrated with my ...partners and I throughout a difficult process. Gerrard made the clear sense of what is typically unfathomable legal jargon. He took time to clearly articulate every aspect of the contract making sure I understood everything. It was evident throughout the process and in the formulation of my document that Gerrard had my best interest in mind and was intent on protecting my interests. Gerrard provided further assistance to me in responding to a civil lawsuit I was served. As one might imagine I was unnerved by the thought of being sued but Gerrard got involved and handled the situation completely. I would definitely use Gerrard again should the need arise and definitely recommend him to anyone.
