Wonderful

Gary is one hell of an attorney. I was recommended by a friend to him and all he did was make sure that I was doing OK and everything was about me. He al ways wold call and text me on important things about court or anything. Whenever i had any questions he answered them with true honesty. I would re...commend him to anyone he is amazing

Honest, truthful and fantastic lawyer who cares about his clients!

One of the best lawyers I have ever met. He has turned my life around. With his kindness and patience, he listened to my small case, which resulted in a larger case then first anticipated. When I first started with the case, my original lawyer was ineffective, and would never speak to me in person. S...urprisingly, I went car shopping after the accident and the car dealer manager heard about my case and gave me Mr. Lazarus phone number. Sure enough, I called him and the biggest surprise was that he asked me to go meet him in person. As soon as I met him, I knew he was the right lawyer and person to fight for me to get justice. The best decision I made in my life was to fire the old attorney and higher Mr. Lazarus. He gave me comfort through the whole process and I believed in him through the end. He proved his professionalism by following through with his word. He is very professional, knowledgable, honest and strongly believes in himself. These great attributes of Mr. Lazarus resulted in us winning the case. Mr. Lazarus went above and beyond. Amazingly it's over - and I don't regret hiring him. Thank you Mr.Lazarus for everything and I will recommend you to everyone who needs someone to fight for justice.

Great Representation

I had an accident last year that recently closed around two months ago. Gary was great. He kept me in informed, he explained to me what exactly I needed to do, and most importantly he asked me how I was feeling. He went above and beyond a business transaction. Gary was human and had my best interest... at heart. I highly recommend Gary as he provided superb representation for me on my case. The outcome was worth the wait to complete the case.

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.
