M. Gordon "Gordon" Hearn

Trusted guidance through a complex business acquisition

We engaged Gordon Hearn at Gardiner Roberts to handle the legal aspects of acquiring a small manufacturing business here in Fort Worth. With nearly two decades of experience, his general practice background proved invaluable, as the transaction touched on everything from contract law to employment issues. His recognized expertise in tax law was particularly crucial; he structured the deal in a way that provided significant tax advantages we hadn't considered, which alone justified his involvement. Gordon is a steady, knowledgeable presence who explains complex matters in clear, practical terms. He was always prepared and his counsel felt grounded in real-world experience. The one area where we occasionally felt a slight delay was in email responses during non-critical phases, but when urgent matters arose, he was immediately available. Overall, he provided exceptional value and we feel confident having him as our ongoing counsel for business matters. Highly recommended for his strategic, well-rounded approach.
