Dont waste your money
My husband and I hired him a couple years ago to resolve our tax issue (we needed to make installment agreement with IRS) Our case was passed around to several different lawyers in his firm. Zero follow-up! And the installment agreement to this day has never been set up. I’m guessing they have a huge...

Hire someone else!!
We hired Gary to help us save our house. Imagine our surprise when 8 months later our house was sold at auction without any notice to us! All of our foreclosure notices went to Mr Quackenbush, and he forwarded NONE of them to us. Multiple attempts were made to contact him by phone and email, as we...
Unfortunately James is telling only about 5% of the story. We filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy on the eve of a foreclosure sale (had not made mortgage payment for 16 months) and stopped the foreclosure. We had exchanged over 150 emails and dozens of calls and meetings during the course of representation. I personally attended 5 hearings to work the case. They stopped paying the mortgage payment even after the case was filed so the creditor went to court to get after the house again. TRUE we lost the house because the creditor was not going to wait any longer and I did not act fast enough to fight. To fight the creditor at that point was a lost cause. The hearing that I did not go to was the hearing dismissing the case for failure to comply with the court orders and the bankruptcy re-organization plan. I'm sorry that they lost a house that was $50,000 upside down and in need of serious repairs. Instead of asking for money for damages, they went to the California bar to try to destroy my 30 year career helping families - and nearly did. It will take me years to recover what it cost me to make this mistake. While I am recovering from the severe punishment imposed by California, James will be able to buy a home (their income is high enough to do so) assuming they handle their money well. My team and I work very hard to help families. I'm very sorry that this type of thing happens and hurts people. GQ

Do Not Hire!!!
He was hired by my family to help with a legal matter and was terrible to work with. He has been of no help and now cost us $1000's of dollars we will never be able to recover. Horrible customer service and would not return calls or emails. Take it from us...hire a different lawyer and save your...
I'm really not sure who this is. There is no way to fix this without knowing what happened. I have 5 full-time team members to help clients and I can't figure out how we all missed this one. We are working very hard to make things right. GQ

Dump Truck
Never returned any of my calls I felt riped off and taken for my money.
Gosh. I hate to hear this. I have 3 full-time professionals answering calls, working cases, getting things done. I am not sure how this happened. With phones, voice mail, live receptionist, mail, etc., how did we miss getting the messages? Or returning calls. I am constantly teaching, training, and trying to handle tough situations. It must have been terrible to feel abandoned or ripped off. That was never my intention. I am sorry.

Hire another tax and bankruptcy lawyer!!!
Gary's follow through and desire to keep his clients informed is by far the worst of any attorney I have ever encountered. He assured me that I would hear back from him within less than 30 days. During this time, I repeatedly attempted to communicate with him, but he neglected each of my emails and...
Ouch! It is true that if you make someone happy they will tell someone but if you upset them they will tell 10 people. If this is the Marc I think is it, I believe I did everything I was hired to do. True, I could have got it done faster. I wish I could have delivered better news, but I was the messenger of the bad news from the big bad tax man. I'm sorry Marc.
