I can’t thank Regina enough for her support and expertise throughout my custody case. From our first meeting, when I was overwhelmed with anxiety, she made me feel heard and supported. Regina is incredibly kind, fair, and straightforward. Her confidence and legal knowledge helped ease my fears, and I... felt like I was in the most capable hands. Thanks to her, what felt like an impossible situation ended in the best way possible. I’m beyond grateful and highly recommend her to anyone going through a difficult custody battle.

Regina SAVED Our Family!

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 fo...r 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 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 fr...ightening 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.

REGINA IS A LIFESAVER

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.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
