Hired Attorney Melissa Gardner

I was going through a pretty simple divorce without trying to get the courts and lawyers involved because I had always heard lawyers are only interested in the money part of the process.But, my now ex-wife wanted to take me to court and try to get a large amount of money for alimony from me so, I contacted Melissa and she explained the entire process to me before any money was paid out. I work out of town about 11 months out of the year so our correspondence was 90% over the phone. But when I finally had the privilege to meet Melissa I quickly realized that she was a down to earth good Christian woman that was looking out for my best interest. When she found out that I was a combat veteran she Applied a Veterans discount to my final bill. Melissa was so persistent with my ex-wife’s Lawyer that they had no choice but to settle which saved me lot of money in the long run in alimony. I’m grateful that I hired Mrs. Gardner! I would certainly recommend her to anybody else!

I have used Ms. Gardner for various issues that have arisen over the years. She has always provided me with outstanding service and excellent results. Each time I followed her advice, I was victorious and reached my desired goal. She is smart and works hard for her clients. She is honest and tells her clients what they need to hear, not what they want to hear. I would definitely recommend her without hesitation to anyone having criminal or family issues. Excellent attorney!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
