Review Terry Gerbers

Facilitated selling of business -- amazing work

Posted by

Terry and his team guided me through the recent selling of my business. His experience was obvious and reassuring, especially for me not having gone through such a process before. He educated me along the way, and provided me the information in lay terms to help me make informed decisions. Yes, of course he thoroughly understands real estate law, but he also understands business. He was deliberate and persistent in his representation, especially during a couple sticky negotiation points with the buyer, but yet he was diplomatic and poised. He even takes my lawyer jokes in stride.

Legal excellence

Posted by

I have used Terry's law firm for both business and personal issues. They are highly competent and trustworthy I was involved in lengthy and very contentious personal legal matter which many lawyers might have chosen not to continue .But Terry and his team stuck with me while demonstrating the highest level of professionalism and integrity.

Very Good Counsel

Posted by

Terry has assisted me with possible purchases of two businesses – with one going to completion. I sincerely appreciate not only Terry’s legal guidance, but his views and experience as a small business owner. There were multiple instances where I needed Terry to walk me through (in very detailed form) what each of step of the process entailed, the risks and opportunities, as well as his own opinion on what he would do. Terry was never overtly directive in his advice, but I always felt fully aware of the pros and cons of any decision. I am lucky to have found Terry and he continues to be my trusted lawyer/advisor today.

Seller representation in a business acquisition.

Posted by

I am a commercial lender and refer clients to Terry Gerbers that are looking to document the purchase of a business and commercial real estate. Our recent transaction had equity for a stock purchase coming from a 401K rollover. Terry's expertise in this type of transaction provided reliable and timely results and make the buy/sell transaction go smoothly.

Highly Recommended

Our company has been using Terry Gerbers' services for 12 years. Terry prepares all of our clients' operating/member agreements, resolutions, amended agreements, and any other legal documents related to buying/selling companies and mergers. Terry always acknowledges every e-mail I send him in a short amount of time. All documents are prepared and returned very quickly. I am very pleased with everything he does for us. I would highly recommend him!
