Reviews for Gary
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.I am VERY satisfied with the service that I receive from Mr. Kollin. He is representing me in 2 separate cases-a complaint against the police and a criminal case. He has excellent communication skills, extremely professional, responds to calls, texts and emails promptly, VERY knowledgeable, COMPETENT, and he genuinely wants to help his clients. Though it may seem trivial, Mr. Kollin has a great sense of humor. Sometimes you need that to get through difficult situations. I am totally impressed with Mr. Kollin and I will always highly recommend him!
I’m extremely grateful to have found Gary as an attorney. He has been knowledgeable and helpful in regard to my case, having information and advice that was not found with the many attorneys I spoke to before finding Gary. Without Gary’s expertise, I would still be lost with a very big problem that was getting worse. Gary has brought so much peace and clarity not just to my case but also to my life. I can’t thank him enough for the knowledge and help he has provided me. I highly recommend Gary as an attorney.
Simply the best. Gary Kollin made me feel comfortable with the process. He is a true legal eagle. I highly recommend Gary Kollin as your attorney with your legal problem.
Gary Kollin worked diligently on my case and provided excellent communication throughout the legal process. He is very knowledgeable. I felt that I was well represented and would highly recommend him to others.
I went to him based on a friend's recommendation. I learned that he really knows his stuff. I thought I was doomed but he got the case dismissed. I got in trouble again and I knew he was the only one to go to. He worked a miracle a second time.
WARNING: DO NOT HIRE THIS ATTORNEY! He will charge you, then when you start to notice his incompetence in your case proceedings. He will then tell you to go hire someone else! He has no idea what he is doing! He loves to be very arrogant but his effectiveness is very poor! He expresses alot of confidence with his clients, but is weak in court! He stutters and cant seem to keep his train of thought in front of the judge! If you want to throw your money away then hire him! Dont spin your wheels and go no where with this mess of a lawyer! All we can hope for, is that he retires soon, but in the mean time! HIRE SOMEONE ELSE!
