Ryan Thomas Gardner

My family and businesses have relied on Mr. Gardner for many legal issues for over 10 years. He is an extremely conscientious, accurate and knowledgable attorney. In extremis with the IRS, he has represented my case professionally, yet always forcing the issue of constitutionality and rule of law. Hi...s personal demeanor is cheerful, engaging and always courteous. With the many years of corporate experience, Gardner also directs legal advice for our best business decisions. Mr. Gardner's resume is incredible. He has graduated from some of the most esteemed universities in the land, has achieved CPA credentials and served with several top law firms in the nation. Armed with this heritage, it is amazing that smaller companies like ours have the opportunity to realize the breadth and depth of his experience. We consider Mr. Garner not only our tax attorney, but also General Counsel in affecting much more broad aspects of entrepreneurial business. I would strongly recommend Mr. Gardner as one-stop for business advice, support and direction pertaining to tax and legal matters. In addition, he is a class act, holds all conversations and transactions in the strictest of confidence and is a man of integrity. A strong Christian leader in the community, a wonderful husband and dad and the best friend a man could have both personally and professionally.

Ryan's knowledge of how to prepare a contract for the sale of a business is unparalleled. He knew things I, as an experienced business owner, would never have known and the relative importance of what could be negotiated and where we would stand firm. And stand firm he did. His ability to put to...gether the legal side along with his knowledge of the IRS tax consequences was outstanding. You get two professionals in one person, with no wasted time or repetitive information. I would not hesitate to use Ryan again or recommend him strongly to others planning to sell their businesses.
