It's hard for me to rate any attorney above a negative. Personally I think God has a special place for them. I helped in the JAG office before I was deployed to Iraq, so between that, a divorce, and terrible driving issues I've been on both sides. I simply don't trust attorneys; I've seen the sleezy back room deals where it looks like a couple of kids trading marbles or baseball cards, only it's our lives they are messing with. How good an attorney is isn't just memorized law books and exceptional recall ability. It's also not just his friendships and network of people he knows. It's a complicated mixture of many many things that equates to a respect level. You can not like someone but they earn your respect. As well as having a friend you would never think about taking his advice. Gene has been doing this attorney thing for like 50 years. It might be his job, but I think he only works to fill in time, it's what he knows in life and is comfortable there. If you got yourself in a position your gonna have to trust an attorney; I wish you luck, and suggest Gene.

I've hired very few lawyers in my life because I can't stand a person that will ignore morals for a pay check. But this man has heart, honor, and stands on his morals. He's went from my lawyer to a man I look up to.!
