P. I. Lawyer
From the beginning, Mr. GEMELAS carried himself as a consummate professional. I would highly recommend him for his diversified knowledge of the law, excellent temperament and diligence. His personality makes you feel comfortable at once. I am very pleased that I chose him to represent me and I would do so again.

Wonderful Representation
Jim was very personable from the beginning. He accepted my case after my previous lawyer fell ill and dropped all her clients. Jim was very reasonable about the retainer and my situation. He responded quickly to all of my calls and emails and answered all my questions in a manner I could easily understand. He made sure that I felt comfortable with all the arrangements of my divorced and followed through with my request to wrap things up quickly.

Jim is absolutely the Best
Jim is an outstanding lawyer & goes well beyond the extra mile to help his clients out. He's always there to help out in critical situations whether it be in the evening, or on the weekend. He puts in more hours than anyone else I've seen. Jim offered candid & reasonable advice in my very difficult divorce case. He tries to work out a reasonable resolution, while serving as an outstanding advocate. He should definitely be your top choice if you're looking for a lawyer.

Terminated Alimony
Jim just saved me $165,000 in alimony payments over the next 3 years. With his help, we showed that my X was co-habitating with the guy I divorced her over. It was a truly satisfying experience and worth every dollar I paid him.
He was response to my calls and text. Just a great guy. Your X better look out when you hire Jim.

Excellent attorney
Represented me in a dissolution/parenting case. Was very pleased with his responsiveness, especially via email. The case worked out well as a result of Mr. Gemelas' guidance and knowledge as well as fairly decent cooperation between my spouse and me. Mr. Gemelas has particularly good knowledge and insight of the Lorain county judges, lawyers, and court system.

Jim Gemelas review
Jim Gemelas is an exceptional and knowledgable lawyer. He is very fair. I had a divorce from hell that lasted over 4 years. Jim's guidance and patience won out in the end. He was very good at representing my side and was very good at showing the facts of the case.

GREAT LAWYER
Mr. Gemelas was what you hope you get when you hire an attorney, and that is a person who has a true passion for the Law and not just a " businessman" who got into the legal profession for the money! Mr. Gemelas cares about the truth and isn't afraid to go the distance to get justice for his clients.
