Gloria Helped my wife and I close on our first home. She spent a lot of time helping us understand the mountains of confusing details and information. It would have been very overwhelming and we wouldn't have felt as comfortable as we did without her assistance. She spent time dealing and explaining things that the sellers lawyer tried to rush us through. We can't thank her enough and we love our new home!

Gloria Baldwin worked with me when I was buying my first house. She took care of all the necessary coordination between the bank, the realtor, and the closing company and consistently communicated everything she was doing all the while. I honestly believe she did 10 times the work I did getting into my house.
Gloria Baldwin's loyalties are with her clients. She scoured through countless documents and informed me immediately of anything that even mildly alarmed her. Her meticulousness and experience enabled her explain all the legal terms to which I would be bound by my contracts.
When Gloria Baldwin's tireless research unearthed any terms that I was uncomfortable with, she immediately took action to rectify said terms. At all times she ensured that I understood what each term meant and what the repercussions for their existence in the contract would be and, when necessary, advised me on the most intelligent course of action.
My realtor also expressed supreme satisfaction regarding his dealings with Gloria Baldwin. He spoke highly of her experience and competence and described working with her as a pleasurable experience.
I would definitely recommend Gloria Baldwin to anybody. Her experience and meticulousness make her an invaluable asset to any client. She communicates clearly and consistently and will never leave a client uninformed. Her interpersonal skills allow her to form excellent relationships with all parties with whom she interacts and allows her to accomplish things others may not. I will be calling her again as soon as I start looking for a new place.

Gloria gave the best experience one could ask for. Both knowledgeable and willing to put forth much effort unlike anybody else involved in my mortgage process. Without that knowledge and effort I would not own my current home.

Mr. Bryant represented my wife and I in a bankruptcy precipitated by medical bills and another large local law firm that "is for serious cases" attempting to screw us over with bogus billing arising out of an injury suit.
I was very impressed with how he answered our questions quickly when we called and continues to do so years later without billing us just because he answered the phone. Straight up guy!

Charles is very knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and patient. He took the time to explain the processes, the forms, and next steps. He was also willing to see me on short notice at times and take numerous phone calls. I used Charles Farrell to draw up my land contract for prospective buyers and also for the sale of that property once the contract had expired. I can highly recommend Charles Farrell for your real estate needs. I would not hesitate to use him again.
