Carl O. Gunnstaks

I engaged Luke to help with a child custody case after dealing with former spouse who fought dirty. The initial meeting with Luke was promising, he pointed out things that needed to be clarified, however Luke never took action. 3 years (and $85k later) nothing had materialized. Beware of expensive l...awyers who claim they can help. Big disappointment to Luke’s “services” is an understatement.

I have been in a high conflict abusive custody battle for over 12 years now. Luke came to me through me through a friend that knew my situation. My ex fled with our son to another state and had abducted him and alienated me. I've had supposed "good" attorneys before but Luke is beyond "good", he's e...xcellent and exceeds in his field! He is a hard worker, and looks for the truth of the matter. He is genius in the courtroom, and a perfectionist on any and all court documents that are drawn up. His staff is extremely helpful, professional, and have it together. He his well known, and is one of the best that does what he does. Although, he's hard to get ahold of and that's just because he's always busy. He always answers and is responsive, to my questions and concerns, through his staff. I've had attorneys that I had to educate, not him!! The only thing is that he can't do the foot work that I can do, as far as, documentation and filing out things that are of my knowledge and experience. I don't want an attorney, I've had them, that will do things like charge for filing out discovery. He is a man of integrity, brilliance, and a heart of gold. If you need some poop cleaned off your shoe from courts and exes, he's the one who shows you how to get it off without getting it all over yourself. He has done what I thought was not possible and got the work done, and cares.

Gunnstaks was my attorney in a child custody case. He was unresponsive to our requests for assistance. An example is when we were asked to fill out lengthy forms of discovery, he just told us to fill them out to them entirely. We did not agree and thought they were asking for information that was n...ot pertinent to the case. We actually had to hire another lawyer to ask for advice on how to fill out the forms. He was not knowledgeable or prepared. When we went to mediation, he showed up without any of our documents, and asked my husband to go get our copy from home, which my husband did while Gunnstaks ate snacks from the opposing counsels fridge. He was of no asssistance during the entire meeting. He was expensive, did not keep us informed, did not represent us well, and I would never recommend him to anyone.
