Professional & Respectful Counsel

Mr. Gassaway recently represented me in a decade old case. He was diligent in researching my case and kept me informed every step of the way. His resolute approach and counsel was a breath of fresh air. He made sure my case moved along post-haste, saving me time and money. Mr. Gassaway is profession...al, respectful, and steadfast . I highly recommend him and his counsel to anyone looking for such an attorney.

Monica, thank you for the kind words of praise. I was just glad we could get the case dismissed after so many years.

TRUSTWORTHY, DEPENDABLE AND HONEST

Turner has represented my company and me on both business and personal matters for a number of years. He has proven to be an outstanding advocate and counselor, and I trust his advice completely. On more than one occasion he has advised I take a course of action that although meant less money in at...torney's fees for him saved me considerably in time and expense. Turner's a rare breed of lawyer. He puts the client's interest ahead of his own. I would and have trusted him with my life. Always responsive and brutally honest, Turner let's you know what you're in for before you get there. Never over promises and under-delivers. Honest as the day is long and totally incorruptable. He won't sell you out, but he'll tell you when he thinks your wrong. If there's a better lawyer out there I don't know of them. I recommend him unequivocally.

"I have known Turner for five plus years. I have known him as both an adversary in court and as a colleague/fellow defense attorney. As an adversary he was extremely formidable due to his wealth of experience and knowledge in the courtroom. He always represents his clients to the fullest. He takes his time and treats each client with respect and as individuals. He is a fantastic and successful trial attorney. He is hardworking and diligent. He is always very thorough and well-prepared. I whole heartedly endorse him!"

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.
