Gauthier Law Firm has helped us with one of the most important things we can do for our family...set up a will and trust. My husband and I have put this important task off for years. Gauthier Law Firm walked us through the process every step of the way. Anytime we had questions a response was received quickly. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Ms. Gauthier has been very helpful to me during my estate planning process. She has offered her experience to guide me through making important decisions that will effect my family in the future. When asked about any concern, Ms. Gauthier has used her vast knowledge and expertise to advise what will be the best option based on the circumstances. The entire office staff has been courteous and attentive as well. I refer friends and associates to The Gauthier Law Firm on a consistent basis. They have not been disappointed and neither have I.

They have been great
They have been very patient with me and have answered all of my questions. They are very nice when talking to me. Really great at getting back to me if I email or leave a voicemail.
My uncontested divorce was filed on September 08,2020 and it requires that the petition is on file for 61 days so I am still waiting for those 61 days to pass then they will tell me what is next and once they do I will come back and update this.
Thanks !
Just signed my final divorce papers! They are fast in replying, the one working on my case is the best!
Im grateful for them taking care of
