Very pleased

I do believe Mr. Gatch is going to be the biggest blessing I could have asked for in my case. He is always able to communicate and is very nice and does just what he says he will. Which is HELP! I am very glad I have him on my side.

Custody case

David was very quick to respond to my plead for help in my child custody case. It's is still on-going. Buy he has been by my side every step of the way. He has calmed my nerves on more than one occasion throughput this experience. I couldn't have be blessed with a better attorney.

Divorce and custody

Mr Gatch has been a savior for me and my son. He has worked quickly, professionally and stayed in contact with me the entire time. I highly recommend Mr Gatch for any of your legal issues.

Such a Let Down!

Very disappointed in Mr. Gatch. I called him to help with my case in getting my children back. Talked with him per video call (Facetime). Told him my story and all. He got my paperwork from years ago and kept telling me that he would meet with me here in Clanton, AL. Said he would meet me at the cour...thouse on Monday and I never heard from him so I messaged him…he stated he was busy in court all day. Gave me the run around and told me he would then meet me at the courthouse that same Wednesday at 9:30am. Said he would send instructions on where I need to come and so on. I never received a text..no call..no instructions whatsoever. Very unorganized. Thanks a lot for leading me on and not doing what you said you would do.

Today is April 20, 2022. I have come in from court and found this review posted today...So I looked back to see when I last received a text...a very nice text...from this person...... whom I have never met....who has never come to see me.. as for being busy....I'm never that busy....I do go to court for my clients who hire me...but nothing from this complainant...for over two weeks..I have not been hired by...consulted with..or ever met this person...My clients call me, text with me, and email me.....but I will still try to help if she will SIMPLY MAKE A FIRM APPOINTMENT.

Divorce

From the date of filing to the date the judge signed one month and two days. Now that’s a fast divorce. I’m glad I was referred to him. David is a gem
