Muchisimas Gracias

Thank you so much for helping my mom Alma Iris with the process of her divorce. My mom was going through a very hard time with health issues and a difficult marriage that was affecting her health even more. Orlando was able to guide us in helping my mom. Orlando Is an outstanding Lawyer!

Best attorney I could have prayed for

Nicest caring attorney I have met. Look no further. Orlando Gonzalez is the best you are going to find. His staff is also amazing.

Amazing Attorney

I can't tell you how glad i am that I found Orlando Gonzalez. I was desperately searching not just for any attorney but one that would aggressively pursue all legal avenues considering my current circumstances. At times I was a major pain in the butt but Orlando continued to be professional throughou...t the entire duration of my case and was always there every time I had questions and I mean every time. I have yet to find a lawyer like this who will consistently answer your questions, take your phone calls, reply to your text and emails, I was not expecting the level of service and professionalism I received based on my past experience with attorneys. All I can say is he did for me what most lawyers either couldn't do or would say was impossible and made my problem legally disappear. Trust me when I say, you want this attorney in your corner when sh** hits the fan.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Orlando Gonzalez for several years. He is a gentleman. He is courteous to everyone. He is fluent in English and Spanish. He is one of the most personable lawyers around but until today, I did not realize how good he was and how persuasive he could be. We handled a forfeiture matter wherein a client was being detained at an airport and his personal property was taken by DEA. I defered to Orlando's experience in Forfeiture, which is unmatched, and he was able to talk the DEA agents into returning the personal property to the client and no arrest was made. You could argue it was miracle or you could argue that he performed as a seasoned magician. I was impressed and this was only the second time in my 13 year career that someone impressed me. I plan on working on future cases with Mr. Gonzalez as he proved he brings a lot to the table. If you are looking for a seasoned attorney, he is worthy of your consideration."

"Orlando is a very competent and knowledgeable Family Law attorney. He tries to settle cases in order to avoid the financial and emotional costs of a trial, but if trial is inevitable he is a zealous advocate seeking to obtain the best possible result for his clients. Orlando is also calm in the midst of chaos and easy to work with. I highly endorse him."
