Gary Edward Shader

Gary left me homeless, and uncaring as my divorce attorney. Kim, his paralegal, was abusive, obnoxious and most condescending, every time I called his office. I brought this to Mr. Shader's attention, he called her in his office and lied, denied saying exactly what she had said to me in the wait...ing room, that very day. Unbelievable!!! When I asked to speak with Mr. Shader, she asked " why? , you have to tell me or he won't take your call". I told her I wanted to speak with my $30,000 Attorney, not his paralegal or legal assistant. She proceeded to hang up on me. In the end, he never arrived for our Court Date with the Judge. I had to act as my own Attorney. I'm glad he's in LA. May he now enjoy talking about his son and grandchildren to his clients there. BEWARE. ONCE YOUR CHECK CLEARED THE BANK, YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN! Also, please read your Bill carefully. I was homeless, without a computer and Kim billed me for e- mails sent , when I specifically called immediately about my situation, to say I do not have computer access, nor do I have a home any longer. Kim, replied, "okay, thank you", and hung up If you choose to use Mr. Shader, you have been fore warned that you are not a priority. Let's hope he on the verge of Retirement. This is one less attorney needed, to practice law. ANYWHERE!

I highly recommend Attorney Gary Shader. Mr. Shader is Board Certified, specializing in Marital and Family Law. He is a well seasoned, knowledgeable, and professional attorney. Mr. Shader was straight forward with his answers to questions and issues as they arose in my divorce case. He saw me through... the divorce procedure from beginning to end. I felt like I was important, and in excellent hands during a very difficult time of my life. Mr. Shader's Legal Aides are professional and competent. My questions and concerns were answered and explained in a timely manner. I was kept informed at all times on the progression of the case. The office itself gave me a comforting feeling, and is centrally located on Maitland Avenue.

I would, do and have highly recommended Gary Shader as an expert in his chosen field of marital and family law. He took my case and made me feel as if he were fighting for his own family. To the point that he stepped in and pursued an issue which was in the best interest of my child and which I had... not originally intended to pursue. He and his staff were very patient, professional and competent, giving me a sense of security during a time when my entire life was not only at sea but also in a hurricane. Mr. Shader is board certified for a reason and you can tell he is respected by his peers. He and his staff are careful to explain issues as you need, put you at ease, and are also straight and forward with you when needed. My overall experience was wonderful. To anyone looking for assistance and guidance during such a difficult time, Gary Shader should be at the top of your picking list. Bring all your questions, review them with him, and be assured he will represent you professionally, when needed aggressively and through to completion.

I am very thankful for Gary Shader. He was very wise in handling my divorce case over ten years ago. So much so, that today, the fruit of his expertise and counsel have stood the test of time even when challenged some years later. I marvel over this fact today and wanted to put into writing my... gratitude for his wise legal counsel and professional handling of my case during a distressing period for me. His office is managed by competent legal aides who also helped in carrying my case forward. His office atmosphere was relaxed. Today, I remain secure in the legal boundaries that were established over a decade ago as very necessary for the well-being of myself and my children. For this reason, I am writing to express my appreciation and thanks. I have also known him to give advice about running and drinking water when asked!

I am a lawyer and have known Gary as a peer for 30+ years. He represented me in my divorce 10 yrs ago, and throughout, resulting recently in a negotiated termination of permanent alimony. Family law has been the focus of his practice his entire career leaving him with credibility and experience tha...t is invaluable in his dealings with attorneys and judges. Highly recommened by me to my clients.
