Gemelas, Wilson, Merrill & Fritz Co LPA

In the fall of 2023 Attorney Michael Wilson, Esq. represented me in the Lorain County Court of Common Pleas. Attorney Wilson exceeded my expectations, he was very prepared and had a high concern for my welfare. I highly recommend Attorney Wilson he will fight for your rights.
Also, Attorney James Gemelas worked on a Domestic issue for me. I found Attorney Gemelas to be an excellent Attorney having great depth in the law. Attorney Gemelas is easy to talk to and very understanding.
Finally, I found the ladies, that is the support staff to be very friendly, knowledgable and helpful.
Mr. Matthew Wyman

I have worked with Jim Gemelas for a long time on different projects. He has handle any legal case I have had in the last 15 years (which are not many lol). Jim has always been there when I have any questions. He did not treat me like I was stupid because I didn't understand "lawyer" lingo. He took the time to explain everything to me. This last case I have with him is where my son was in a very bad accident. I was a mess. Someone told me to get a lawyer two days after the accident and the only person I knew who would treat me and my son like people instead of a case number was Jim Gemelas. In my initial call he told me to take care of me and my son and he would handle everything else. He has been honest and caring for our situation and even visited my son at Cleveland Metro. So if you are looking for a lawyer who works for you and not the money, Please call Jim Gemelas. He really cares for his clients.

Jim has been the greatest blessing to our family! In a very sticky custody case, he has been there by my side, advising, guiding, and encouraging me throughout the entire process. He always make moral decisions and thinks about what the best situation is instead of an ego boosting decision. He is honest and upfront in telling you what to expect and the outcomes that may come of the situation. He is very reputable and hard working and will do whatever necessary to put your mind at ease. I can respect that he speaks on experience and intellect rather than emotion and opinion. Although the final outcome has not been decided yet through the courts, I can confidently say choosing him to represent me, and my family, was hands down the best decision I have made. If you want a lawyer who actually cares about YOU and not his personal gain, I 100% recommend James!

This has to be the best firm in Lorain County. Jim Gemelas is an excellent attorney that gets things done. He has represented friends and family as well. He has been our family attorney for close to 20 years and I wouldn't trust my family legal issues with any other firm. Thanks for always being there and on your job!

I have hired Mike Wilson on multiple occasions and everytime I felt an immediate sense of relief because I knew his integrity. He was always there every step of the way. He goes above and beyond his scope of duty and truly cares about his clients. I consider him not only a great attorney but a true friend. Highly recommended for anyone that wants an attorney that truly cares about his clients and will fight to the end for the best outcome. A++++

I worked with Joel Fritz on my divorce case. He was very honest and worked very hard on my case. I was very pleased with his work. I have also worked with some of the other lawyers on my case when Joel wasn't available. Jim Gemelas was also excellent to work with and spent several hours in court negotiating my case to finalize it.Everyone at this office is very helpful and polite. I am very pleased with this law firm and would highly recommend them.

I personally worked James Gemelas, my experience has been nothing short of a honest and hard working attorney fighting for me and my kids. James always answered the phone and responded to text, which is a huge deal when going through a divorce. I've got to know him not only as a attorney but as a friend as well. The man know his stuff and never steered me wrong one time. I was in trial for 3 days straight and not at any point did I feel at a disadvantage. I would highly recommend James for anyone looking for a good honest attorney and someone that knows there busniess very well.

I highly recommend Mike Wilson. Mike was able to confidently navigate the legal process and had 3 protection orders dismissed. Yes I said 3!

Went above and beyond to help me finalize my divorce. Extremely reasonable price.

I retained Mike Wilson to represent me for a complex civil case which required in depth research and interaction with the plaintiff council. Mike went above and beyond to make sure I was removed from the case. I would never recommend any attorney other than Mike Wilson to provide legal representation. I am truly blessed to have found the Smith, Illner and Gemelas law firm to represent my case.

I am a client of Jim Gemelas in an ugly ongoing support battle for a child with special needs. He is caring, professional, helpful, supportive. Whenever I have a question or concern, he is quick to respond. I couldn't have picked anyone better to be a voice for my child and I.

I was referenced to Mike Wilson through a friend. He took my case right away and was very forth coming about my options for court. In the end he was able to get my charges reduced to basically nothing. I couldn't be happier with the results, and I recommend him to anybody that needs experience and integrity in a difficult situation.

I was falsely accused and charged with a very serious crime. My Attorney Michael W. Wilson able to get my charges dropped. I had no idea that a disgruntled ex wife could make up such accusationss and result in Me being charged I highly recommend this firm.

I had a traffic violation that I got the highest possible misdemeanor and mike Wilson took the case, was timely and respectful. He got the violation down to the lowest possible misdemeanor and I couldn’t be happier. Would 10/10 recommend
