I hired Gary for my son in his juvenile court case. I cannot say enough about this man. He truly had our back and gave our case 100%. He always updated us and was always in touch. Whenever I would call and request information, I got a call back right away explaining all information. He also made us feel at ease going through this process as he is such a loving and caring individual. He walked us through this process step by step. It was never about money in this case, Gary made it about what was right and did everything in his power to fight. We made the right choice and would definitely recommend Gary.
I never had to hire any type of Attorney before my case and I made a great choice. I found Gary, thanks to Von the computer genius, who told us how amazing he was. I was facing serious Felonies and didn't know what to expect. Gary actually gave us his personal phone so we could get a hold of him and ask him anything we needed! That was probably the best thing to happen during the case as he kept us at ease and answered any questions no matter how silly they sounded. Before Preliminary, he told us the possible outcomes and kept everything real with us, he fought for my case and gave me and my Family our lives back. Thanks to him we can breath again, hes also very friendly and just a great guy in general. I highly recommend Mr. Modaferri, you cant go wrong with him!
Gary is the best hands down, I got into a situation, I called my friend of the family cause I was out of town when it happen, and Gary made the point to come and see me out of town, and did a fantastic job, he is great, if it wasn’t for Gary I wouldn’t be Giving this review , Gary is the best!!! Thank you again Gary I appreciate everything you did and so does my family,
Attorney, Gary Modafferi, is a rare attorney in the field of criminal defense. Whether a case is in the State court, or the federal courts, he has an understanding of appellate procedures unlike many trial attorneys. He is impeccably honest, passionate and dedicated. I have come to know him over the years and honestly trust him like no other attorneys my friends and family have ever met. I am humbled and most grateful that he took my case and with his help and insight I will soon win my fight for my freedom.
I had a robbery case and Gary did everything in his power to help me. He is amazing at what he does. I highly recommend hiring him. He is so down to earth and such a genuine man.
Gary represented me on a false claim of domestic violence by a woman who was also stalking me. This was a very delicate case and time sensitive. I gave Gary the evidence I had and he went above and beyond spending time researching and keeping me up too date at all times by phone and in the office where he also made me feel I was in safe hands. On the day of court I knew in my heart I was innocent but Gary absolutely blew me away with his talent as a lawyer and regardless of the fact I was completely innocent there was no way the accuser stood a chance and I think everyone knew it in the court room that he was in complete control and there to win. As a result that’s exactly what he did “WIN” and on top of that he was spoke some of the most kindest words to me on the walk out. I have known a lot of Lawer’s though business, I can tell you I’ve never met one like Gary and doubt I ever will. I highly recommend him and will never be able to thank him enough.
I hired Gary to represent my son, who is not a NV resident, but got himself into some trouble while vacationing in NV. Gary went above and beyond for my son. He consulted external resources and helped set up an alternative to jail time which, was crucial and very beneficial in this case. Gary helped with all interstate transitioning and worked with our local attorney as needed. The case was ongoing as probation was a factor; over the course of 5 years, Gary was always available and genuinely concerned and interested in providing the best legal representation for my son. He did not "nickel & dime" every move and/or phone call. We are very greatly appreciative of Gary's sense of compassion and expertise.
I had an opportunity to meet and hire Gary when I was arrested and was in a heavy panic mode due to serious theft and forgery charges in Las Vegas. I am a Canadian citizen. As I was not from the States and have never been arrested in my life, I did not know what to do at all. Gary came forward to me and fully devoted his time in fighting the case and had the most optimal solution out of the case and protected me from potentially going to jail for a long time. Long story short, while I was stranded in the states for a several months fighting for the case Gary's sister (Joy) provided me with the place to stay and offered anything else that I am in need of. I am truly very grateful for his service and his family's gratitude and until these days I stay in close touch with him and his family. To Gary his main focus I believe is not about the retainer or how much money he can bring in exchange for his service but genuinely build that close and trust worthy relationship with his clients and most importantly to protect from his clients from getting in further trouble. Gary unbelievably is a strongly kind and hearted person. I wish for all those who are in trouble to go forward and use his expertise to get themselves out of trouble. We need more lawyers like Gary around the world! Period.
Shortly after moving to Vegas I needed a lawyer, and a friend recommended Gary. I was very impressed with Mr. Modafferi, both personally and professionally. He's very responsive and easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable with Gary in my corner!
Gary Modafferi went above and beyond the call of duty helping me in a case in United States Federal Court. Statistically the feds win 95 percent of their cases and I would have lost the case using just another attorney that did not have the skills that Gary has. Charming, disarming and extremely clever, besides being legally astute, his work got my issue dismissed. I highly recommend him as an attorney and legal advisor.
