Hired Attorney

While I can't fault the significant amount of effort Mr. Gelety put into my appeal, the main detractor was the near complete lack of communication with me, his paid client. I didn't even receive a phone call to discuss the results of the appeal hearing - everything was left to a very impersonal e-mail. The detail he put into the written brief was excellent, but his communication with me was severely lacking.

Hired Attorney

There was little if any communication from Mr. Gelety. He would not return calls or emails. He is a competent attorney as far as his work, but no communication skills to speak of.
