Value Can Be Nice But Other Things Degrade The Value

Would not recommend Gilbert Bradshaw at all. We had hired Bradshaw with the idea it could be a win win... but it ended up being a lose lose. First, the attorney is a deal breaker. He thinks one thing then places this as " what will occur" when it doesn't . The matter extends itself beyond what it sho...uld , drags out longer than it must and its endless. We would recommend to pay for A BETTER attorney than a Cheap one. The fees are reasonable but the price you pay in the end is not worth it. Do not recommend.

Honesty, Integrity, Professional, Knowledgeable - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

We have been working with Gilbert on a startup for two years now. Gilbert has been patient, and knowledgeable in guiding us forward. He has generously introduced us to his Network, which has furthered our goals. Gilbert is someone we are fortunate to have on our team, he has assisted us tremendous...ly in achieving our goals and we would never go anywhere else.

He know business and law

Unlike many lawyers, Mr. Bradshaw has a deep understanding of not only law, but the effect legal choices can have on small and medium sized business, so the council he gives has the perfect balance to help you make the right decisions in the short and long term. He also genuinely cares about helping ...others, which to me is a rare trait I appreciated having.

Excellent value as you get professional top of the line legal services at a great price.

The confidence I felt in Gilbert at our first meeting proved evident throughout the process of my start-up. He explained the process thoroughly, listened and responded to my questions with clarity, and managed the process professionally and with mindfulness. He was such a solid and active lawyer that... after I launched, I decided to retain his services as a part-time general counsel for a low fixed monthly fee. Other than the day to day matters he has helped me with, thus far, on three accounts Gilbert provided specialized intervention to mediate disputes with 100% success rate in my favor. That alone has been worth 3 years of my monthly fees. I would comfortably recommend Gilbert to anyone considering a start-up or other legal matters.
