Divorce can be one of hardest things in life when there is property, debt and children involved. The task of fighting for desired outcomes becomes trickier when the other party relocates to another state. Gerald Tadlock took this complex case and was able to coordinate standing orders between two ...

Mr. Tadlock has been my attorney in the past, & I have nothing but good things to say. He was through and timely. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of a fair and ethical attorney.

Mr. Tadlock took action in my divorce case from the first meeting and put the kids interest as the upmost priority. He was prompt and compassionate throughout the whole time. He was professional and competent during the court procedure regarding custody. He was tireless in trying to come to a equi...

I recommend Gerald Tadlock as your attorney. I explained the situation of my complicated family matter and he gave me a time frame that he could have the case completed. He completed the case in the time he estimated. He was always available for my questions and he didn't nickel and dime me for every...

I have used Gerald Tadlock for a complicated family law case. He really took the time to get all of the information about the case, not like other lawyers who do everything through their staff. He took the time to get to know the issues, he was familiar with the Courts and their policies. He never...

"I endorse this lawyer."
"Gerald and I have been on opposite sides of the docket in a couple of family law matters. I found Gerald to be professional and always concerned for his client's best interest. He was a worthy adversary."
"I highly endorse Mr. Tadlock. He is a very knowledgeable attorney who will not hesitate to fight for his clients and their rights. He displays a high level of commitment and concern for his clients. He has the ability to remain calm and controlled in very stressful circumstances, allowing him to act not only tactically but strategically. That is a rare quality in our profession."
"I have worked with Gerald on a couple of cases through the years. He has always expressed the utmost professionalism in dealing with me and in trying to resolve the difficult issues we've had to deal with in our cases. Gerald aggressively advocates for his clients in the courtroom and in doing so I respect him as a tough but fair opponent. Outside of the courtroom Gerald has always been more than happy to offer assistance and counsel on difficult issues. He is a good attorney who is willing to go to bat for his clients and fight for their rights."
"Gerald and I represented clients that were diametrically opposed on a case. We wound up mediating the case into the wee hours of the night, and because of Gerald's tenacity combined with his creativity and "reasonableness," the case settled. Not only did he represent his client well, but he injected a much-needed sense of calm and rationality to the entire process. I highly endorse him!"
"I've had cases against Mr. Tadlock and consulted with him on the same side of cases. I've always found him to be straight forward, ethical, and honest. He is easy to deal with and will work toward settlement if possible, but at the same time he will not shy away from pursuing his client's goals in court if that is necessary."
"I worked with Gerald on a case involving a highly contentious issue with possession between the parents. He did an excellent job of representing his client but at the same time maintaining a high ethical standard."
"Gerald and I have worked together on a number of family law matters. I have found him to be a very intelligent and even keeled attorney. He always strives to do the most sensible thing for his clients which is a rarity in family law cases today. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking an attorney in a family law matter."
"I worked opposite Gerald on a a very difficult case. The family was in complete turmoil and was busting at the seems. The kids were way too involved and the clients were out of control. Gerald worked with the system and advocated for his client professionally and aggressively. During the chaos he also kept his focus not only on the client but also on making sure the kids weren't used as weapons. I can't say I enjoyed the case, but it was a professional pleasure to work with someone that maintained his integrity during that very difficult process."
