Christopher Mathew Gilley

This guy called me back asked to hear my story. But only heard a total of 30 words of my story. Told me to move onto the current issue and I explained that what Indiana statute stated and controlling authorities says. He tells me good luck with that argument and Hope's I win but doubts it. His proble...m is he didn't even look into it before deciding that he wasn't gonna take the case or at the very least look into it. Most attorneys at least look into it to see if there is something there. He didn't. Other attorneys told me my issue was real but they couldn't take me on right now, that had it not been such short notice they would have helped me. Then he didn't even want to hear the rest of my story in regards to other issues that I wanted to have him help me with. His demeanor change right away when I told him the issue at hand was. Prior to that he was I don't know nicer and more willing to help. But soon as he learned what it involoved his whole attitude and demeanor changed. Just because they say they help all manner of cases isn't true. Mine involved a cop and though I took a plea it was under duress, coercion, and forced perjury. I can actually prove it, I obtained later evidence that exonerates me and shows prosecutors, counsel and police knew it. Yet the court still denied my p.c. and because I'm no attorney I couldn't prepare the appeal right and failed because of it. I also learned my arrest and confinement was never legal or constitutional, meaning my conviction was as well. Other evidence obtained further proved my conviction/plea agreement is not legally enforceable and unconstitutional. I have evidence of corruption of the police, prosecutors, co-counsel, and the judge. Evidence the clerk of the court provided who conveniently was replaced soon after. Now I learn that the public defenders office has destroyed the case file when they are not supposed to do, prosecutors done the same biased on what was said to me by them, the clerk of the court and court reporter is refusing to give me records and recordings that is supposed to be made available. There much more but this attorney didn't care to hear me out. I called and his partner actually told me I have p.c. issues but one of the issues his partner Gilley knows more of. So he wanted me to talk to him about that one issue. But as said Gilley refused to know his facts before turning me down on that issue. Then he wouldn't even continue with the other issues his partner said were legit issues. I'm a non certified paralegal with 10 years of experience going on 11. I made sure to research and have all the statutes, rules, and authorities that concur and affirm that what issues I have and don't. Attorneys are always annoyed when someone knows what they are talking about and know law and ain't even one of them. I know more about the law then this guy. I may not know all the complex language, philosophy, and histories of law. Have access to all the forms and resources he has. But I know more of the law. He's just a mouth piece. Paralegal are the ones who do the real work and actually knows more of the law than the attorneys. Attorneys do the talking and presenting. They haven't the time to do research, investigating, and preparing and litigating in court. The only thing they actually do is the actual court stuff. So normal good attorneys will hear your story and tell you they'll look into it then get back with you. He didn't he just out right ditched me. Even his partner said my issues isn't your run of the mill issue. So he didn't know, not many do. Other attorneys I talked to looked it up and found I was right. My issue is real and told me if it wasn't such short notice they would help. Because my issue really is short notice and I knew it. But they actually took the time to look it up before making a decision. Thus guy didn't and even refused to hear my other issues I wanted to hire him for. He's trash and shouldn't be an attorney if he's gonna be that way. Don't hire.

I have been utilizing Chris’ service for 4 years now. What i love about Chris is that he genuinely cares about his clients and you can relly tell that he is passionionate about what he does. I had a civil hearing regarding the custody of my son. Chris did a hell of a job in there! I’m happy to say th...at I was awarded custody of my son thanks to Chris. He has truly been a blessing to my family. He is a great lawyer, person, father and I am grateful that my family feels like he is a friend.

Chris did an amazing job. I naturally have high anxiety he has a perfect personality that makes you calm and secure. His assistant Ron always answered my calls. There is no lawyer in the state that I would ever call besides these gentlemen. I am not a rich person by any means and these people were so... incredibly reasonable that I would recommend them to anyone for anything. Thank you so much Chris this literally means the world to me

I was involved in a very nasty divorce and custody battle in 2012-13. This was a very complicated case and it involved the most dirty and despicable tricks one could possibly imagine on the part of my now ex-wife and her family. There were countless false allegations made, multiple CPS investigations... as a result of aforementioned false allegations, her denying me visitation with my kids early on in the case (Chris was able to put an end to that very quickly!) and the list goes on and on. Being the man in a divorce case; especially with custody involved, it is almost always a guaranteed losing proposition. As it turns out, my case was thankfully decided on a much happier note. Chris rightfully deserves the credit here! Chris was beyond wonderful to work with. He became like a brother to me and took this case on as he would for family or a very close friend. His skills and expertise made all the difference between it being a "standard" divorce case and a winning case. The settlement was 100% fair and I now have my kids the majority of the time. Chris helped me overcome what would have otherwise been virtually impossible odds and I cannot thank him enough. I will definitely work with him in the future and I highly recommend him to anyone I see or talk to. If you are going through a divorce and custody battle (and especially if you are a father), you owe it not only to yourself, but to your kids as well to hire Chris. You will be glad that you did!
