Gil was a great asset to my case. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and an expert negotiator. Gil made an extreme effort to meet with all relevant parties on my case and was able to get all parties to agree to a satisfactory resolution. I'm confident that my case was handled with great care and my outcome was more than I expected when we first retained Gilbert. I continue to consult with Gilbert and his team when I have legal questions or need advise or recommendations. Awesome Lawyer!

Called this office after being referred by the FAC. I was pretty upset because my husband had been accused of something falsely and we needed respresentation at his first appearance the next morning. The receptionist, Jessica, was helpful but made it sound like she couldt help me until after he went in front of the judge. This didnt sound right to me, so I found another attorney to give my money to that would show up to represent us at the first appearace. THANKFULLY, the lawyer got my husband a very inexpensive bond, because everyone else without an attorney got a 25-50k bond for the same charge
