Great results!!!

I was very pleased with my experience. Divorce is tough enough as it is, but Steve and his staff were very helpful in explaining and educating me in the process along the way. Steve and his staff are very knowledgeable and worked to help me geg the best result possible in my case. I never felt like I... didn't know what was going on, where we were in the process, and what possibly could come next. I am thankful to have had such a great team that helped me.

Excellent Attorney

At my first consultation Steve let me know that we had a 50/50 chance of winning a custody case. I hired him and although it took many months due to court backlog he was able to win the case. He provided excellent support to me. When I had a question I would always get a prompt answer. He personally ...called me to talk about the case. Never have I had such great customer service from any attorney. I hope I never need another attorney, but if I do I will be calling Steve Gilpatrick.

Contested Divorce with Children - was a good, thorough lawyer

Steve was very knowledgeable and has extensive experience as a family law attorney. His staff were very friendly and helpful. I felt that he was conscientious about saving me money throughout the divorce and not trying to milk me for all I had. I think he is honest (sometimes painfully so!) and ...has integrity.

Honest man. Very impressed

I spoke to Mr Gilpatrick about a legal issue I am having in Florida and I live out of state. I have had very bad luck with attorney's recently but was very pleased with Mr Gilpatrick. He gave me over an hour of his time and after hearing my issue, advised me to not retain him. He was very knowledgeab...le and very honest. He could've easily lied to me and had me pay a retainer to him but instead chose to tell the truth and save me the money. I ended the conversation feeling much more at ease and educated. All attorney's aren't bad. Needless to say, I would retain this attorney in a heartbeat if needed.

Waste of MoNey

Steve was only worried about billing me and not winning my case. My wife's lawyer took him to town on our first round of paper work. He did not advise me according to the law. I only found this out once I switched lawyers because his staff had such poor customer service. So I wasted $3500 for him to ...do nothing. Steve is a smooth talker but can't back it up. Don't waste your money.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
