He is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to answer any questions I had along the way (even after hours!).

I am so fortunate to have had a family member recommend Gordon Cruse when I was going through a difficult divorce with an unreasonable and controlling ex.  After contacting Gordon, he immediately began to work on my case.  He was very professional, honest, and gave excellent advice.  He is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to answer any questions I had along the way (even after hours!).
