About

My work revolves around complex commercial litigation, including shareholder disputes and business dissolutions, trust and probate estate disputes, real estate controversies, contracts, construction issues, debtor/creditor rights, employment issues, and torts. I have experience with trusts as well as financial transactions in the following industries: banking, lending, mortgages, construction, real estate, commercial development and leasing. I am aggressive in the courtroom, but compromise if and when appropriate. My prime objective is to achieve practical results for my clients, using an effective combination of technical skill and common sense.

I have only high praise for Tony Gewald. Deeply knowledgeable, with many years of experience coupled with clear communication, he kept me always informed of where we stood. His excellent advice and calm demeanor helped me navigate a difficult and time consuming legal matter. With his decency and high standards, my case was in very good hands. Intelligent and professional, a quick wit...really I could go on and on. I feel fortunate to have had him as my attorney.

My wife and I engaged Mr. Gewald to represent us regarding estate and family business issues. As a lawyer, Tony kept his eye on the horizon throughout our 3 year ordeal and took every precaution to protect my legal options while pursuing an amicable resolve between the parties. I did not always agree with his means; but, his unwavering persona led us well. Lee, his personal assistant is a jewel--easy to work with and really went out of her way to help (even coming to the office on Sunday mornings or staying late on a Friday). Personally, I find Tony an extremely interesting person who is well versed, intelligent and possesses a depth to his personality that very few others have. Being involved in litigation against family members is heart wrenching--a low point in my life. Yet in the end, the leadership, guidance and integrity that Tony bestows carried me through and I actually feel that I am a better, happier, person for having known and worked with him.

Very dissatisfied. If there is a 20' straight line to get to an answer, this firm will take the 200' road zig zagging over nothingness to charge you 10x what it could have cost to get an answer for you, adding people in their firm, you never retained, to your bill. We came to Lasher for advice on 3 questions. They spent $10,000 to tell us what we already knew and never did answer our 3 questions (which had been put in writing to Tony along with a document binder of all the information he would need to give us the answers to our 3 questions. Promptly gave them a hard stop and fired them.

I did not always agree with his means; but, his unwavering persona led us well. Lee, his personal assistant is a jewel--easy to work with and really went out of her way to help (even coming to the office on Sunday mornings or staying late on a Friday). Personally, I find Tony an extremely interesting person who is well versed, intelligent and possesses a depth to his personality that very few others have. Being involved in litigation against family members is heart wrenching--a low point in my life. Yet in the end, the leadership, guidance and integrity that Tony bestows carried me through and I actually feel that I am a better, happier, person for having known and worked with him.

Very dissatisfied. If there is a 20' straight line to get to an answer, this firm will take the 200' road zig zagging over nothingness to charge you 10x what it could have cost to get an answer for you, adding people in their firm, you never retained, to your bill. We came to Lasher for advice on 3 questions. They spent $10,000 to tell us what we already knew and never did answer our 3 questions (which had been put in writing to Tony along with a document binder of all the information he would need to give us the answers to our 3 questions. Promptly gave them a hard stop and fired them.
