The BEST

Attorney Gene Sera deserves much more than just a 5-star review. From start to finish, Mr. Sera will seamlessly guide you through the legal process and the potential complications that it can entail. Be rest assured that he will do whatever he can to ensure that the best possible outcome is achieved ...for all parties. While Mr. Sera is sharp and extremely knowledgeable in what he does, he also displays a genuine sense of empathy that is greatly appreciated during trying times. Mr. Sera is personable and will let you know that he is available through text or phone call at any time of the day. He works quickly and cleanly, and he means what he says. I HIGHLY recommend Attorney Gene Sera for the premium quality of service that he provides. He is an absolute pleasure to work with and just a wonderful human being overall.

Trust the process with Gene

I hired Gene late last year after an argument with my spouse ended ugly and I ended in jail. I thought my life was done. I found Gene here, gave him a call and he eased my mind, put things in perspective and drew up a game plan on how to tackle my case. One thing I learnt is to be patient and trust t...he process. With COVID-19 causing a back log of cases, it was nerve wrecking not knowing the status of my case but Gene reassured me and kept me focused on what I needed to do to handle the case. After a year both cases were dismissed! All thanks to the work and due diligence of Gene and his team. You're reading this because you are looking for a lawyer you can trust. Trust Gene to get it done! He is worth every dime!

Very unprofessional

Gene did nothing for my case he acted like he didnt care from the very beginning i had a case for family violence last year all he would say is "as long as the state is not going to do nothing im not going to do anything" he didnt have a plan when we to trial either the only reason why my case came o...ut to mistrial is because i gathered up all the evidence and i had a plan the only thing gene did was help my charge get lowered if you hire him for a family violence vase make sure you get everything in writing and its notarized

Delivered on his committments

We needed an attorney to address an issue my son was facing and we needed help quickly. Gene was available via phone after hours and told us exactly what to expect. He appeared with my son in court the next morning and delivered precisely what he told us he would. Highly recommend!

Great lawyer, i recommend him!

Gene is a great attorney. He was honest with me all the time and he was always reachable. i always knew what was going to happen. Thanks to his great efforts, I am able to live my life stress free because my case went great! (His pricing is also reasonable)

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.
