They care about clients and send us the information we need to know. Gardner Skelton is heads above other firms we've worked with; I can't imagine using anyone else!”

Amy Clay, District Manager at Liberty Tax Service
“We successfully and accurately established a new organization with their expertise in non-profit law. They got to know our organization and us personally, almost becoming in-house advisors! The Gardner Skelton team works as an extension of your company, as a partner. They advise on strategic business matters, not just legal matters when there's pending risk or litigation. Other firms are just that - firms.”
