"Gene is fantastic. He makes a commitment to clients that he will charge X amount of billable hours on a job and then puts in the work required to satisfy the client. Unlike any other lawyer I've ever worked with, he charged me LESS money than he could have and didn't stop until the job was done. I will be using Gene again and again. I couldn't be more pleased with the experience."
