Bretton C. Gerard, Attorney at Law

Bret represented us in pursuing a claim against our lender. The lender had prequalified us for a loan and provided written correspondence that we used in our dealings with sellers, but mishandled a conversion to a conventional from VA loan when we decided to withdraw our offer after a concerning inspection report. The lender failed in their fiduciary duty to enable us to get our earnest money returned and actually reported inaccurate information to all 3 credit bureaus. Bret threatened to sue the lender for slandering our credit, negligence and negligent misrepresentation. After writing a demand letter, the lender admitted their fault, refunded us the earnest money, and paid our legal fees. If we ever need legal advice in the future, Bret is our “go-to” lawyer.

My husband and I recently sold our home, purchased land, and signed a contract with a builder to construct our new home. Bret helped us review the closing documents, the loan documents, the construction contract and the title documents. He was very clear in his communications. His expert counsel, prompt responses and his knowledge of the law were very helpful and much appreciated. We won’t hesitate to hire him again as our lawyer.

My wife and I came to Bret during a difficult dispute over our home. What sets him apart is how he treats you. He talks to you like a person, not just another case. He is patient, clear, sharp, and steady, and just as emotionally intelligent as he is smart. If you are going through something hard and need a lawyer in your corner, reach out to Bret and see if he can help you too.

Mr. Gerard helped us with a water flood company that damaged our house and just tried to drag out paying our legitimate claim until the time ran out. After eighteen months or so of getting nowhere, Mr. Gerard was hired to help us sort it out legally and we had our reimbursement check within 3 weeks. Mr. Gerard is really sharp, has an excellent understanding of the law, and will fight for you!

Wasn't the kind of attorney I needed, still explained what I needed and took the time to look for referrals for me.

Bret Gerard is a very versatile attorney. He assisted me with numerous real estate transactions, provided guidance on a claim against a tire manufacturer when a tire blowout resulted in significant damage to my vehicle. I always appreciate his advice and counsel.

I cannot say enough good things about this attorney. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to truly understand my situation and provided honest, clear guidance every step of the way. What stood out most was their dedication and attention to detail. I felt completely supported and confident throughout the entire process. After working with someone else previously, the difference was night and day—this attorney exceeded all my expectations. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, fights for you, and knows the law inside and out—this is the attorney you want on your side. I highly recommend them without hesitation. Thank you for everything!
