Knowledgeable and straight forward.
Very glad that I chose Gawayne to assist me on my case. He is very knowledgeable and I was always able to reach him via phone, text and email. As from the start he told me all the steps that would be taken and how long it would take for the case to be over. No surprises along the way.

Amazing attorney!
Gawayne was an amazing attorney in my divorce case. We had many hiccups throughout and he was always very attentive and hastily to act on the issues. He got my case resolved and I was very happy with the end result. I highly recommend him as your counsel in any family law matter. 5 stars.
