Hardest working lawyer in Nassau County!

I was one of Mr Gaitman's clients from the earlier days and he was someone I could always call when I was in a jam! I live in West Texas now and If it wasn't for people like him my life wouldn't be living the life I have now.

The Miracle Worker

My 19 yr old son whom has never been in trouble before make a bad decision that got him into big trouble. I whom never gone through anything like this before didn't know where to turn. After my son's arraignment, Iwalked across the street to Affordable bonds, bailed him out and asked if they knew a ...lawyer. The bails bondsman said to me " if my son was in trouble there's only one Lawer to represent him Steven Gaitman" I called Mr Gaitman and he returned my call while on vacation. A few days later my sister and I met with him in his office. He was well-dressed, knowledgeable very articulate. I felt that Mr Gaitman felt my pain and Hart ache as if my son was his son. He explained all the charges and put together a game plan. He always keep my son and I up to speed with the case. Mr Gaitman worked out a deal with the prosecutor that's superseded our expectations you really pulled the rabbit out of hat on this. Mr gaitman is truly a miracle worker and I am so grateful for you.

The LIGHT at the end of the tunnel…

Steven Gaitman came into our life sent by GOD. He was thorough and articulate in gathering the necessary information for my case. Steven is a great listener; that took the time to listen to our story. He was also a great communicator. Steven guided both my fiancé and I and was our beacon at a difficu...lt moment. Steven is a great energy and smart and was there for us through the entire process guiding us and being our voice. The outcome was a positive one. I recommend Steven from a professional and a personal level experience. Thank you so much. Frances & Christopher
