Posted by anonymous | February 24, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Dropped the ball, no files.

After he takes are of your case, he cannot seem to find a file on you. I asked a simple question. "Did you include a clause in my divorce decree that would allow me to change back to my maiden name?" He told me to ask the court. He doesn't keep files, evidently.

I do keep files for the required to by the professional rules of conduct. The case that has been address was concluded almost 7 years ago and as such, is in appropriately in storage. A copy of the Judgment in question was given to the client on the date of prove-up and the after she was advised of this fact, she was further advised that if she required a certified copy, she can obtain such a copy she can obtain such from the Clerk's office.

Assessing the best of the best

Gonzalo (aka Gonzo) Gomez is the greatest thing since sliced bread! The diversity and comptance of his applied knowledge of law and life has earned the trust and confidence from all those who know him. He continues to serve as an American Patriot, but he’s also an Army veteran, a retired public ser...vant within the law enforcement community, a husband, father and professional friend who is not intimidated to apply those life experiences, with empathy, for those seeking justice and that’s what you’ll get...fair and equatable justice!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
