Gerard Michael Dougherty's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse Gerard. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"I sent a client to Gerry Dougherty recently. He saved the day. What started out as a routine real estate matter turned into a deal gone wrong coupled with estate planning issues. Gerry’s attention to detail and skill saved the estate tens of thousands of dollars. His skill and interpersonal skills during this crisis made a terrible time easier. Gerry also made me look very good for referring one of my oldest friends to him."
"I have known Mr. Dougherty for approximately 22 years and worked side by side with him for 4 of those years as co-workers and then later as partners in a law firm. Mr. Dougherty is an excellent trial attorney and litigator, especially in the areas of Construction Defects, Personal Injury and Family Law. Mr. Dougherty is extremely knowledgeable, thorough and detail oriented in his work, and really shines when it comes to case investigation, trial preparation and in trial. Mr. Dougherty is an extremely skillful and competent attorney that I can whole-heartedly recommend without reservation for any type of legal matter."
"Gerry was my law partner for 10 years and does excellent work. He is a superb trial attorney."
