Extremely Professional, Thorough, & Effective

Oscar is a phenomenal family law attorney. He represented my in a case in which numerous errors by opposing counsel were found to be incorrect or unfounded. Oscar works diligently and most importantly, communicates effectively and in a timely manner. I hired an attorney, but walked away with a friend.... His demeanor and presence is calming, but at the same time, he is a true craftsman at his trade. I hope I don’t have to have a family lawyer in the future, but if I do, there is only one name I will go to… Oscar Gertsch.

Absolute Professional !!!

Gertsch Family Law has proven to us to be professional, organized, dedicated, understanding and compassionate. Oscars knowledge of the family laws is extent and thorough. Oscar will take the time to investigate all aspects of your case and offer many options for a resolve. He is dedicated, prompt and... communication is unmatched by any lawyer, He will take many steps to make sure you understand the situation and lay out a game plan for a resolution that will in the end be the best option. I had a serious child support / contempt case in my hand when i called Oscar. After our first meeting I knew everything would work out in the end saving me time, money and possible jail time. After several weeks of hard, meticulous well organized negotiations he had delivered a result as he proposed in the beginning. I am so happy that my wife found Oscar and he was able to take the case on a bit of short notice as well. Seems he is ready to take on any legal challenges put in his path with pride. Thank you Oscar & staff for your incredible efforts with my case !

The Best

I’m am great full I choose Gertsch Family Law. Being a Dad fighting for custody of my son was not easy. Oscar made this easy and helped so much. Out of all the attorneys I had, I have returned back to Oscar time and time again. There’s no need to look around to find a good attorney. Gertsch Family La...w is it. They treat you like family and easy to talk to. They care. They treat your case as if it was them or a loved one. When your worried, they calm you. When you have questions, they answer them. When you need them, they are there. Thank you Oscar for all you have done for my family -TJ

Forget the rest, hire the best.

If you're looking for a law firm that combines professionalism, excellent communication, financial accountability, and a deep genuine care for their clients - look no further. Oscar Gertsch and Mollie Ritchie embody every one of these values, and I would recommend them instantly to anyone looking to... retain a lawyer for family matters. Forget the rest, spend your money wisely here - you will not regret it, they are worth every penny. 5 stars, and I would give more if I could.
