Best defense lawyer in PA

Gilbert Ambler and his team were top notch. Friendly, extremely knowledgeable, very responsive and also patient while explaining things. Really went the extra mile with everything. I am more than glad to say that he represented me and will recommend him any chance I get. A+++

You’ll get an A+ Attorney with Gilbert Ambler

Mr. Ambler and Codie are amazing!! I spoke with Mr. Ambler over a year regarding restoring my rights to carry a firearm; I was quoted a price and told him I’d be calling him back. It took me over 3 years to contact him back, but he honored the original price he gave me…wow! He and Corie walked me thr...ough everything I needed to do step by step and I was granted my right to bare arms after losing them 30 years ago. I would recommend anyone to Mr. Ambler at Ambler Law Services, LLC.

Super helpful with 2A issue

Mr. Ambler and his staff understand the challenges that typical law-abiding people face each day when dealing with the unpredictable over-reach of government bureaucracy concerning our 2A gun rights. Gilbert knows the legal system well and has a lot of experience involving all types of weapons, self-...defense related issues and the challenges of gun right infringement. His law firm offers an initial free consult to understand the unique aspects of your issue. Then they focus on your problem and how to most efficiently resolve it with the best outcome for you. Gilbert helped us and I highly recommend Gilbert and his team. Gilbert has your back!

Excellent 2nd Amendment Attorney!

I recently contacted Gilbert over the recent illegal ruling by the ATF regarding pistol braces. He addressed all of my concerns and enabled me to make an excellent decision to protect my firearm while keeping me out of the clutches of the ATF, all the while having peace of mind over my decision. I ...highly recommend Gilbert for any Second Amendment concerns. He is detail oriented, straightforward, and honest. Gilbert, you're the best.

Antonio

Gilbert did a fantastic job representing me on my self defense case. He kept in constant communication with me through phone and email. Best of all, he got everything handled. Great meeting you and thank you for taking the time to drive down to Richmond!
