If you are looking for a peace of mind during a troubling, depressing and challenging part of your or a loved ones life, Gerry Morris is the lawyer you need. I had hired a lawyer previously who was sweet and talkative during meetings. However she would often be late to the court room, and we would have to push and remind her to do basic things that she had said she would do in past meetings. Do to the uncertainty we had in her, we decided to switch lawyers to Gerry. Gerry was referred to us by a lawyer (Jason Nassour) who is a close friend of my family. Verbatim, he said "If my own sons liberties were at stake, I would tell him to go to Gerry." Gerry knew my case as good as I did. He was always on top of things, and always knew our course of action. It was a pleasure having him as my lawyer. He is extremely professional and genuine. Gerry believed in me, making it even easier to believe in him. He revealed the truth, dismissing my case.

Mr Morris had been my attorney for almost 12 years now. The day he came to see me in federal holding, I knew he was the attorney for me. Two other very prominent attorneys had already stopped by to talk to me, but I just didn't trust what they were saying. I had already previously been incarcerated in the state penetentry, and I was still on paper. The first two lawers told me everything I wanted to hear, that the charges were nonsense. That they would be thrown out, and much more. I wanted to hear that, but I knew they were filling me up with hopes and dreams. About 2 days later, This tall quiet, and respectful man comes to see me, Gerry Morris, he listens to my story, and my criminal history. I asked him what he thinks ? He looked at me, and said "Rey, I have to go over the punt scale, and look into the police arrest, but this is one you probably won't walk away from without doings some time ". When I heard that, I knew he would be my attorney. Gerry will tell you best and worst case scenario. He will not fill you up with false hope. So if you want a man that will truly fight for you, then Mr Morris is the attorney you should hire. Respectfully; Rey
