Superb Lawyer

Mr Gatch recently handled my estate case in Probate Court against my siblings. I explained what my problem with my dad’s estate was and How my sisters and brother were trying to railroad me into a less then appropriate settlement. He was upfront about the expected timeframe and what details I would... encounter during the legal process. He handled everything a lawyer needs to do to resolve my situation in an extremely professional manner and kept me informed as the case progressed. He was able to bring a conclusion to this case in the way I desired and in less time then it normally takes! I can’t speak more highly about the legal services I received from Mr. Gatch! Though I don’t expect to be in court again I know that should the occasion arise I would call Mr Gatch to represent me again without hesitation

Rude, Arrogant, Hateful

Mr.Gatch took two years to complete an estate. He took an unreasonable amount of time getting this completed when we did everything he asked us to. When he asked us to complete paperwork we were to do it promptly, which we did, unlike himself. He was very hateful in his responses when we asked questi...ons instead of offering helpful advice. 10/10 DO NOT recommend his business.

I have never represented this individual....not in the past...not in the present...nor will I do so in the future. I was the attorney AGAINST this person. Probate cases always end with winners and losers.....This person was the loser. I dispute this comment!
