Attorney Stewart, Garry surprised us!! He got to know us on a personal and professional level. Garry utilizes his home for business and has a notary available. We were able to complete everything with just a couple visits. Gary’s knowledge of Family law, including Motions to Modify, Dissolutions of Marriage, and Paternity cases were very impressive.

Since lawyers and I usually don’t mix well- it’s like” finding a diamond in a goats ass”
He’s a good man and lawyer .

Best lawyer I've ever had to say the least! Garry is a great honest man, and will definitely get what ever situation needed resolved! Most reasonable you'll find, and very responsive with info or questions needed etc. His total retainer and fee's quote was substantially lower from any other attorney I contacted as well. I'm in Washington state and Garry was my lawyer for an out of state situation for a period of over 6 months, and I really couldn't of asked for better representation. Garry is also text friendly which was a huge convenience for me, and never had any trouble getting a hold of him or Garry returning my calls etc. He was able to get my driving after suspension reduced to no registration which was a major break. I was so fortunate to have found Garry's add in the yellow pages! He was able to get a significant reduction on my fines and court fee's etc and didn't ask for any additional fee's from me. If you're looking for a honest, and amazingly reliable lawyer, then look no further. You wont regret it...

Garry Saved the day for us. We had made the mistake of trying to get through a bankruptcy without an attorney. After our meeting of creditors, and the tongue lashing from the trustee, We found Garry Stewart who graciously agreed to take our case. He worked quickly to get things straightened out and maintained great communication throughout the process. We are grateful for his help and would recommend him to anyone who needs legal help.

Mr. Stewart handled my bankruptcy with kindness and compassion. He is a legend and brilliant and if I ever need attorney services again he will always be the man I would turn to. He was very through and meticulous he told me everything I could expect and I completely felt much less stressed having him in my corner. I felt like he was a friend during this stressful process. Rest assured he is the best and he truly cares.

In the late 1980's I had a client who owed us a large amount of money I was needing an attorney. I asked the Prosecuting Attorney of Jackson County for a referral of the most honest and dependable attorney he knew. He recommended me to the Stewart Law Firm. He helped me bring closure to that scenario and was excellent in helping me form a corporation for my business. He also supported us in estate settlements, property transfers as well as personal counsel from day to day challenges of life. We're thankful for 25 years of faithful and dependable service from Garry Stewart and we will continue to use Stewart Law Services in the future.

Bankruptcy can be an overwhelming and scary process, and I was lucky to find B. Garry Stewart to guide me through this process. Not only was Garry consistently following up on all of my needs, but he set the right expectations, and always followed through. Not to mention his fees were very competitive. I would highly recommend Garry to anyone that is facing bankruptcy, I can tell you that I could not be more pleased with his services.



SIncerely,

Garry recently prepared our trust documents for us and guided us through the extensive legal procedures for retitling our homes and autos in order to place them in a revocable trust. He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and very reasonable in his fees. Garry answered my numerous calls with such patience and helped me to understand what we were doing. His family has practiced law in Kansas City for several generations and he knows what great customer service is all about. I highly recommend Garry Stewart to all of my real estate clients and encourage you to give him a call. You will not be disappointed!

In October, I separated from my husband and called Mr. Stewart to represent me. From the beginning until the end, he was extremely polite, courteous, and on top of my case. My experience with him was like no other attorney I have dealt with. He was fair about pricing and very up front explaining every process and what obstacles in my case would possibly require more funds. He gave me all options available and did not make me feel pressured about choosing the most expensive one. My divorce was uncontested. 30 days was required to lapse after filing in order to request a court date. On day 31, Garry called me first thing in the morning to inform me it was time to proceed. I was in complete shock. Attorneys these days rarely call you let alone a day after the required minimum days have lapsed. While in the courtroom, he continued to explain every step with me just as he did from the beginning. His approach to his work made my divorce process the best it could possibly be considering the situation. There is no way I can thank him enough and even referred a friend to Mr. Stewart. If I ever need additional law representation, I will definitely be calling Garry Stewart right away!

Garry Stewart helped me in a stressful situation. My snow plow was hit by a career criminal in a snow storm 7 days before Christmas. The man who hit me ran from the scene. I had medical bills and was off work for a month from my injuries. My case had been dragging for 6 months and the insurance company and prosecuting attorney were not taking my case seriously. I heard that Garry was a serious, well-spoken attorney. As soon as I called him, he started getting things done. He called the insurance company and let them know we weren't messing around. He went to court and I could see the other side's attorney getting nervous. In 6 more months, I paid off my medical bills with a large settlement, and was even able to buy a new truck. The man who hit and ran came out of hiding, pled guilty with the city and lost his insurance. Garry's fee was much less than the other attorneys I talked with, and I feel he gave my case more attention than they would have. I feel justice, happiness, and relief. Great attorney.

Mr. Stewart has been my attorney for 20 years. 4 years ago I was living out of state and needed help wrapping up some mo legal troubles. I had no reservations in mailing my retainer to him and knew this matter would be resolved promptly and with unwavering professionalism. He appeared in court 3 separate times on my behalf and resolved the issue completely. He's also handled both of my divorces. The experience described above is appalling to me because the proactive nature of business I've always experienced. Garry is in no way a lazy or incompetent attorney. You can have faith in him. I wouldn't have trusted him so many years with such sensitive legal issues. You won't find a better attorney.

Paid $1200 Initial for a chapter 7 Bankruptcy. All he did was fill out some paperwork I could have filled out. Then he filed it electronically. He didn't pull a consumer report like any other Bankruptcy attorney would do. He also didn't ask for credit reports. Which I provided myself. I bet He never even looked at them. He just went off a list of creditors that I new I owed. So If I left one out it was on me. Which of course I did. So while meeting at his house I brought this up he said it would be $50-$100 extra because had to change somethings in the paper work. Fine; so next meeting at his house brought check for $75. Then he said with all my creditors and the changes he had to make he needed another $50. This after he couldn't even remember what he asked me to bring from the meeting before. REMIND YOU THAT ALL THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF HE WOULD HAVE DONE HIS JOB AND PULLED A CONSUMER REPORT!!!! Okay so we filed and remind you not feeling good about this attorney. Start watching credit report and creditors start pulling illegal stuff. Like re-posting items with balances still owed. One creditor even sold the debt back to the original creditor and that creditor re-posted it which is totally illegal. So what do I do call my attorney, the one I paid to take care of things like this. He plays me for so blue collar idiot which I am ,but I know a little. In other words he feeds me I line a crap " I've been doing this for thirty years and you are this first person that this is happened to. I'm going to need more money from you for something you already paid for to handle these things for you." Sorry this is were I draw the line and say see you in court. BEWARE AVOID AT ALL COST JUST A LAZY ATTORNEY WHO WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND DO AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!!
