This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Don’t send letters to call you just for you to say u don’t know anything

Received a letter to contact him about a legal matter . Took 10 calls 2 emails for me to get a hold of him . Caught attitude with me for asking questions even though his letter says to call him with any questions . Shady attorney along with casa realtor . I don’t see why they say call them and when... you do finally get ahold of them they catch attitude for asking questions .

I highly recommend Gil J. Altom Jr.

Mr. Altom got an old case of mine dismissed and obtained an order of non-disclosure for the dismissed case on my behalf. He did exactly what he said he's do and was great and timely with his communication. These are qualities which I have found to be rare in attorneys. I'd recommend Gil Altom Jr. to ...anyone!

BEST Kaufman County Lawyer

Gil Altom is an amazing all-around attorney. He is extremely knowledgable about the laws that are in place and works hard to get the result you are looking for. He does not take advantage of his clients and I felt as though he truly cared about the outcome of my case. I have used Guest & Gray in the ...past and they pale in comparison to Gil in ethics and skill! Finding a really good lawyer who you can trust is very rare, but Gil Altom is that and more.

  • 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.
