Great Bankruptcy Attorney

I was referred to Tom by a friend of mine. I was immediately confident in his ability. He was patient and answered all our questions. We had a unique case and Tom was knowledgeable and worked to get us the best outcome possible. I would absolutely recommend Tom for anyone considering bankruptcy. ...

Great bankruptcy lawyer

We were refered to him by friend that uses his company for business purposes. Our need was help in executing a bankruptcy. When we first met with him, he was warm and encouraging. That was something we needed during this very stressful event. He was very informative and explained every step of the... process. He also explained the letters we received from the court; again reassuring us that all was well. By the time we appeared before the trustee, it was everything we expected as explained by him. Just a side note, the other people, before the trustee, had a longer hearing. I would recommend his services to anyone who needs bankruptcy help.

Review of W. Thomas Gilman

Mr. Gilman was referred to me by a local attorney who I trust and respect. All throughout my bankruptcy, Mr. Gilman was straightforward and caring. He and his staff kept me informed and never hesitated to answer any question that I or my husband asked. I am now almost at the end of my bankruptcy a...nd have appreciated Mr. Gilman's assistance with my case. I have learned many things during this time period. I would refer Mr. Gilman to any family and friends in need of assistance with bankruptcy.

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.
