Regina R. Gillespie

Earlier this year I hired Regina Gillespie for my legal needs. I chose Regina based upon high recommendations from others in the community. Regina is not only a highly competent attorney, she is also extremely personable. I feel strongly that anyone with legal needs would benefit from her services.

I hired Regina when I separated. I just couldn't keep my bills paid. She filed a bankruptcy for me and then she took care of me when my Wife asked for alimony (she got zero). Now I can pay the bills each month and I'm not worried all the time. She did a great job, it was done fast, and she made it easy. She was nice to me and I never felt like she was looking down at me. I would tell anyone to see Regina if you have any any divorce or bankruptcy problems.

REGINA IS THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS. I recently went through a separation and divorce. I desperately needed someone in my corner to fight for me and my children. I always felt like Ms. Gillespie respected me and had my family's best interest at heart. Every time I went to court with Ms. Gillespie by my side, I walked out winning a little more ground for myself and my kids-- and with a little more confidence. I wouldn't have stood a chance without her representation and my children are so grateful that she saved them from an unsafe environment. Ms. Gillespie is honest, dependable, has integrity and is extremely knowledgeable.

Regina Gillespie has helped me and/or my family members several times over the past 16 years. When health issues became apparent for my Dad, I suggested to him that he and my Mom discuss their desires and needs with Mrs Gillespie. Regina went above and beyond ,during one of the worst and most frightening times of their lives, to accommodate their schedule and to provide them both with peace of mind while ensuring that all areas of their world were covered in their wills and legal matters. I will always be grateful to Regina for the sincere compassion she showed to my parents---you never forget moments like those. My husband and I likewise retained Mrs Gillespie's services for the same purposes and found her and her staff to be compassionate , thorough , and produced the completed necessary legal documents quickly without mistakes(exactly to reflect our desires). We have also acquired the services of Attorney Gillespie several times over the years for different real estate needs. Each time she has delivered fast, efficient services at a fair , affordable price. My family and I have always been more than happy with Regina's professional legal services and would recommend her to you as reliable, trustworthy help when you are in need of legal services.

A highway trooper on I-77 in Surry County stopped me in August 2019 and issued a citation. I looked on the internet and found Attorney Gillespie. After an office consultation I employed her to represent me. She did an outstanding job in getting my case dismissed without my having to go to court. I recommend her highly. Her secretarial assistants were also very polite and helpful.

3 years ago my husband and I started the journey of making a custody change for our son. His mom had primary physical custody and they shared legal. It was a very long, hard, emotional journey but Regina supported us and fought for our son the ENTIRE time. He would not be with us if it hadn’t been for Regina. Our journey isn’t completely over and we still rely and depend on Regina. Regina is loyal, honest to a fault, stands firm in what she believes in, encouraging yet realistic and truly cares about her clients and their families! She always makes time for us and can be reached/contacted very easily, even on the weekends! Regina did save our family and fought for us to give him the life he deserved. No amount of money or thanks will ever be enough!

Regina is an excellent attorney, professional and honest to customer. She did a great job for my traffic case. She told me what she was able to do and what was the best result she was able to help me after she took my case. The final result is much better than she told me and I expected. I got a traffic ticket on I-74 in Surry area on August 22nd. I took my daughter to college. All of the way I followed the speed limit and drove safely. I drove from I-77 onto I-74 and entered Surry NC. We wanted to go to restroom and take a rest, so I checked GPS Navigation and tried to find the nearest Rest Area or Gas Station. I didn't know and didn't realize that the vehicle's speed was becoming/changing to a speed over 80 mph while I checked GPS Navigation and looked for Rest Area/Gas Station. The whole procedure was a very short period, I guess just about half minute or one minute. The police car parking on road side flashed the blue lights, and I was pulled over safely on side of road. The police walk to my vehicle and said that my vehicle's speed is over speed limit (70 mph), and gave me a traffic ticket (87 mph). I am a conservative driver and drive vehicle very safely, but I got a speed ticket with 17 mph over in NC, and I had to come back on the court date. I contacted and consulted with Regina, and hired her for my case so that I didn't need to come back for the court. After I provided all information including my driving record, she told me she was able to help me get 9 over, the best result would be 5 over. The final result she helped me to receive is a reduction to improper equipment ( a non moving violation ). Given the 17 over I didn't expect any of the DAs would grant that. This final result is much much better I expected. Regina did a great job for my case, and I really appreciate her!!!!!

Regina is the BEST attorney for a custody/divorce my case was SUPER complicated and she walked me through ever step hand in hand and NEVER let me fall or have a set back or weak moment and I was always bent out of frame even through I left him I was always crying because of the trauma I went through with my ex husband and the anxiety of having 2 babies under my wings and not having the best paying job in the world she was truly my rock and got down on a best friend level for me when need be and she was on 100% the rest of the time she has a “she’s got this attitude” and in the end she definitely has the task at hand in 150% of her total control and we where up against Jody P. Mitchell........ so enough said she is the BEST and I wished she would run for JUDGE at some point on her life because she go that grit for sure.

If I had not hired Regina Gillespie, I truly don’t know how I would have gotten through my three years in divorce court! Despite being tough as nails in court, she is very personable. She gave me the information I needed to make some hard decisions, and I always felt she had my best interests at heart even if I was being given some information I didn’t want to hear. There were four issues for me to deal with: child custody, child support, marital support and division of property. Regina was very clear in our discussions of what needed to take place and when for each issue, and she fought for what was best for my children and myself in each instance. Regina is a very busy woman, but you could set a clock by the consistency of her timely responses to my (many!) inquiries. I would not hesitate to hire Regina again. She is, hands down, the attorney I would want on my side.

Sent her $4810.00 for a custody dispute. She said retainer was $1500 and the rest would go in a "trust account just in case of a lengthy court battle". There was no battle at all. Joint custody was agreed upon and she KEPT $3000.00 for drawing up paperwork, SMH. She said she charges $265 an hour. Her office sent us a check back for $1750 out of $4810 for no court battle joint custody.
