Very Satisfied Client

Jerry Gaggini was very patient and professional in helping me to navigate the legal system and guiding me through the probate process. I had never done this before and most likely won’t need to do it again. Without Jerry’s assistance, the entire process would have been very intimidating especially ...during a time when I was so vulnerable. I would recommend Jerry in a heartbeat!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
