Gail Garner

GAIL GARNER, R.N., CLA, is the Legal Administrator and Paralegal Manager for The Defense Group.

Ms. Garner has been employed as a Legal Administrator with this firm and its predecessor firm since 1984. Prior to that, she had been a Registered Nurse, a High School Teacher and a Legal Secretary.

Ms. Garner’s primary function is to handle the firm’s financial and administrative issues, including working with the firm’s accountants, insurance representatives, telephone, computer and other communications professionals, and all of the Human Resources functions of the firm. In a larger organization, she would hold the title of Chief Financial Officer. Here the title is unnecessary as she shepherds the financial affairs of the firm. She also actively participates in internal dispute resolution and customer service to our clients.

In addition to handling all of the business requirements of the firm, Ms. Garner acts as manager of the additional staff. She also is the contact person and paralegal for all Criminal Records Sealings and Expungements. She brings over 33 years of valuable experience to her role with the firm.
