Michael Wilbur Gast

Working with Michael Gast was nothing short of life-saving. He showed unmatched dedication, compassion, and tenacity in helping me navigate a difficult and emotionally draining divorce. My ex was unreasonable and nasty but Mr. Gast remained steady, strategic, and always professional. If you are go...ing through a high conflict divorce and need someone who will fight for you while also treating you like a human being, I cannot recommend Michael Gast highly enough.

Mr Gast stood with me through a particularly tough transition in my personal life. He was responsive with communications and guided me through both civil and criminal proceedings. At a time when everything felt stacked against me Mr Gast was steadfast and reliable. The divorce process lasted a ridic...ulously long time but Mr Gast was there throughout and I am now happily on the other side in large part thanks to his representation.

Mr. Gast helped me get what I wanted and more in a very difficult divorce. I was very worried and scared going through a divorce trial. However, Mr. Gast excels in the courtroom and I knew he was working hard for me and my family. He prepared me for what would happen in a trial and I felt at compl...ete ease even being cross examined. Mr. Gast knew what evidence he needed from me and used it wisely in the trial. Mr. Gast has been a lawyer for a long time, so I trusted his judgment and everything turned out even better than I expected. He has a lot of experience working with judges and knows how to best present your case. Even with difficult witnesses Mr. Gast was able to get the key issues brought out, and I knew great preparation had gone into being ready for those moments. Throughout the trial I always felt that I had a great warrior on my side. On a lighter note, Mr. Gast is a great storyteller and can help take your mind off the trial. He helps you relax just by telling you stories that put your mind at ease. You can laugh with him and trust his judgment. I highly recommend Mr. Gast representing you if you’re going through a divorce, especially one going to trial.

First, I would like to offer my sympathies if you are reading this review. You are absolutely enduring one of the worst and most challenging times of your life. I’m sorry. That said, Michael Gast was a stable and sane force when it seemed everyone around me appeared to be losing their collective m...inds. My situation was particularly painful, because we were up against one of the most belligerent and pugnacious attorneys in the county. An attorney that clearly preys on emotional distress. She was absolutely unreasonable, irrational and in my opinion, unethical from the start. Her clear objective was to wear us down with unreasonable demands and minutia. Mr. Gast handled all of the insanity with a steady hand and mind and sincere demeanor which did, in the end, prevail. It is extremely difficult when the court system treats you like a criminal simply because of your gender and the pandering of the other side. It does seem like there will be no good outcome when you face a biased magistrate time after time. However, in the end, a judge did see the belligerence and dishonesty of the other side. When in front of a fair and reasonable judge, you want representation like that provided by Mr. Gast. Sincerity, honesty and restraint go a long way in the courtroom. As much as I wish that I didn’t need Mr. Gast’s services, he was the one bright light when everything seemed so bleak and dark.

I would highly recommend Attorney Gast for child custody. We are still in the midst of this case as we have been thrown every curve that could be thrown. Mr. Gast has worked tireless and kept me at east throughout. He has worked diligently and tirelessly on this case which has turned out to me mor...e that expected. He is knowledgeable, dedicated and very experienced. I am so glad that he is my attorney. He is a first rate, trustworthy attorney.
