I can't say enough about Gary and the way he treated me through the whole system. He was very knowledgeable, intelligent and he had a way of explaining things to help me understand so that I was more confident during the whole process. Gary was able to help me negotiate and get the kids into my custody 100% of the time. This really changed the lives of my daughters, myself, my entire family.

Brian
I was really impressed that each time I came to the office I didn't have to remind him of all the different details. He always remembered all of the minute details that were going on in my case. It really made me feel like he cared, and he really wanted to help me end up in a safe place. Through the litigations, I was able to take full custody of my children and to really provide them a safe environment. I don't think I would have had the confidence to do that without Gary's guidance. I am very grateful and I know that my children have been exposed to a very safe and loving home environment, and I really thank Gary for helping me with that.
