About Me

Renée Yvonne Gardner

I'm Renée Yvonne Gardner. My upbringing drove me to attain a higher education, instilled a uniquely strong and unwavering work ethic and uncommon persistence. These assets serve my clients very well. Simply put, I work hard and do not give up.

For many years, I steadily worked to achieve every one of my educational goals, graduating  from Saint Mary's College of California and then attending Santa Clara University School of Law, at night. All the while, I worked full-time during the day, in a law office, and studied in the hours in between. 

Throughout my studies at Saint Mary's and Santa Clara, I worked full-time for attorney Paul A. Noboa as his San José law practice paralegal, on serious personal injury, wrongful death, death benefits, criminal defense, and post-conviction relief cases. Most of his clients spoke Spanish - - as do I. I still accept serious personal injury and wrongful death cases, I have added consumer protection, small claims court assistance, to my service offerings.

At Santa Clara University, I earned a law degree and a Certificate in Public Interest and Social Justice Law Public interest and social justice attorneys want to do more than just get ahead in their legal careers - they want to make the world a better place. My passion for the law, and how it can make a difference to people, is why this certificate accompanies my law degree.

Since 2006, I have been a member in good standing with The State Bar of California. I have also been a member of the Latina Lawyers Bar Association, Alameda County Bar Association and the Santa Clara County Bar Association. I am a longtime member of Consumer Attorneys of California, who champion for the rights of consumers and injured people, as do I.

Once I became an attorney, I continued to work for the same lawyer, serving many Spanish speaking clients. In 2019, I opened Gardner Law, where I continue to serve my clients. Please message me

A lawyer for more than 17 years, I serve my clients in English and in Spanish. My persistence and determination are clear when I fight for my clients - and here's what my colleagues say about me.

My clients are a range of people from our community:

  • Some face the physical and emotional pain of a personal injury case.
  • Others bear the indescribably crushing heartbreak from the loss of a loved one who was killed as the result of wrongful death accident.
  • Some have a consumer issue and need small claims court assistance - a demand letter and court case initiation document. This help is just a click away, anywhere in California.

Did you know that some attorneys give their assistants control over a client's file? More than a few personal injury attorneys do this; rest assured that I'm not one of them.

When you hire me, I will not hand off your file to an assistant, giving them free reign over your file, and then cross my fingers hoping they'll keep me up to date on what they're doing on your case.

I know what is going on with each of my clients' cases. Doing most of the legal work on my clients' cases, I work one-on-one with them, as I believe it best serves my clients.

I'm not ashamed to say that I love being an attorney! When I'm not serving my clients, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends and enjoying nature.
