Michael Wilbur Gast

I have hired Mike as my attorney 3 times. First for a divorce/custody case when I was in my early 20's. Once for a Custody case while in my early 30's. And this last case that just finalized for a divorce from an all but 17 year marriage. The most recent one lasted almost 2 years, because the court s...ystem is still so far behind on cases. My now ex decided to bring his "girlfriend" into our home, with me and our children there. Mike was very professional, empathetic, and aggressive when needed. Each time I hired him, he explained everything, all of the possibilities of outcomes, what I should do to keep my kids and myself safe and protected. I am disabled and currently fighting for disability, my ex was claiming that I wasn't disabled because he didn't want to pay me alimony. Mike got me in contact with James Sullivan, a Vocational expert to speak with my Doctors and be a expert witness. Doing that got me alimony, and saved me thousands of dollars because I didn't have to hire one of my doctors as a expert witness which is crazy expensive. Without Mike and his Knowledge of the laws, I don't know what I would of done. I highly recommend Mike Gast to anyone looking for a great, affordable, easy to work with attorney.

I hired Michael Gast for my divorce and child custody. He was very reasonable on attorney fees knowing I didn't have a lot of money. He is very knowledgeable on the laws and was able to give me several options and guided me through the best options for my particular case. Mr. Gast was always very wel...l prepared and a very aggressive lawyer in the courtroom. He made sure my kids got to stay with me and that was the most important thing. I would definitely hire Mr. Gast for a child custody and divorce case.

I wish I would have seen the first review prior to obtainng this attorny. The only reason I selected him was because the ad stated that they were "affordable". That is far from the truth. You will have to hire a bankruptcy lawyer after he is finished with you. I was charged .15 hour @ $250 for 30... second voice mails. charged .25 hour for review of email sent, but never heard back from the office concerning the issues addressed in the email. Charged .15 hour for forwarding court notices. Unless you have money to burn AVOID this attorny. He doesnt keep me apprised of situations concerning my case, and charges above and beyond what I would consider reasonable.

Michael is a great divorce lawyer. He charged me very little to represent me. I feel like it was a free service considering other lawyers charge over 400 dollars per hour. Michael is very knowledgeable about divorce law and his years of experience are a big asset. He was able to accurately predict th...e outcome of the case. He helped me get custody of the kids and retain my property. Another very important reason why you should hire Michael is that, he is available over the phone at any time even after hours. He will respond to your emails or phonecalls even on a weekend in a reasonable manner. I know times where he has been up at 5 am to respond to a pressing issue. I would hire Mr. Gast again.

Had a wonderful experience with Michael -- he was nothing but kind and helpful in helping me resolve a difficult and stressful situation. I couldn't have asked for a more determined advocate. I would highly recommend hiring him if you want to avoid being represented by someone less experienced, or s...omeone who just doesn't care (I had bad experiences before I came to him, but unlike other attorneys he resolved everything quickly and cheaply). I've since recommended him to several of my friends and co-workers.
