Great Attorney!!!!!

Gil Sanchez is an outstanding attorney. He was quick to respond to my call, he accommodated me into his busy schedule in a short notice and provided guidance and referrals for my case. I would recommend him fully and without reservations. I also appreciate that he lives his life by example, he is an ...devoted family man who loves his family and community. If you need to hire an attorney, give Gil a call!!!

Satisfied

Winning the case is what made me do this review. A sinkhole opened up under my home and my attorney was pretty aggressive with the insurance company. I saved a lot and we ended up winning.

Please read

When I first moved to St. Petersburg, I was very excited to live near the beach and downtown area. The only thing is my landlord definitely didn't inform me of all of the mishaps with my new home. I didn't know what to do. Out of the many law firms I contacted, I'm glad I chose this one. I extend my ...gratitude to the team which helped me not only get more compensation than I needed but I was able to use it to find a more comfortable home. I highly recommend the Sanchez-Valencia firm.

Not disappointed

A friend told me about Gil and his law firm. I was always hesitant about hiring a lawyer, it just seemed so expensive. But with my case I had no other choice and the firm made it simple every step of the way. It was worth it and they helped me win my case.

Highly Recommended

I had Gil as my lawyer a few years ago after switching from a different lawyer who was unprofessional with me and didn't seem sincere. Gil is the opposite. He worked with me and listened and definitely keept me up-to-date on what we were doing for the case. I highly recommend him.
