Excellent & Committed - Saved Us $100,000

Our family has relied on Mr. Gudger for most of our legal needs, from fighting housing related issues to creditor lawsuits. Mr. Gudger took on an old creditor that tried to take everything we own. He found a loophole had the lawsuit dismissed, saving us $100,000. The investment we made with Mr. Gudge...r was worth it. And, over the years, he has advised us with positive results. No lawyers are perfect, though some might think they are. Sometimes you have to pay to find out there's nothing you can really do. But, even that advise is valuable. I refer Mr. Gudger whenever I can and have recently sent two friends to consult with him. He's accessible, down to earth and is a fighter. I'll go into court with Mr. Gudger any day.

Ethical, Hardworking and Bright

I have worked on many criminal cases with Mr. Gudger over the years. I have found him to be ethical, honest, hardworking and knowledgeable. I work with dozens of attorneys on a continuous basis and would rate him a top general practitioner. God willing we will continue to work together for many ye...ars to come.

As a legal professional and an officer of the court I have considerable exposure to members of the bar. Gregory Gudger has been my lawyer for more than a decade handing a variety of issues from the trivial to the complex. In every single instance his performance has been spot on. I hire professi...onals to get the job done to my satisfaction, and to that standard Mr Gudger has always met the mark. I have recommended him to others and would do so again.

Very informative and knowledgeable

He has provided excellent information regarding contract agreements. His follow up is superb! His pertinent knowledge of contractual agreements prevented an opportunity for a lawsuit. I am happy to refer his exceptional service and his ability to communicate effectively. Thank you for all of your ha...rd work!
