Excellent lawyer

Gigi was recommended to me by another attorney. After two lawyers had failed our child custody case I was skeptical of all lawyers. Our case was a mess! After meeting with her she made me very at ease and assured me she would get us on the right track and she did. Gigi is a mastermind of the detail...s. When trial got near I sent her a list of questions I thought were personally important to my case and to my surprise she had all the same ones. That assured me that she had listened to everything I had said and on her end she had done her homework. She was quick to respond to our needs and requests and on a very personal level. She made a very difficult time a little easier. She was up front and honest about things and understood the frustration we were going through. I would recommend her to anyone as being someone who truly cares about what happens Not just another case!

Gigi is the BEST!

I can't thank Ms. Oglesby enough! My ex sued me for full custody of my daughter. My original attorney Julie Ketterman had represented my ex in a divorce. So, I was screwed and I didn't know it! Of course my ex had my attorney disqualified and I was stuck! I called Ms. Oglesby and told her my story.... She immediately intervened the next day! Low and behold my ex's attorney had served me with discovery because she figured I wouldn't have an attorney. Ms. Oglesby served my ex with discovery and soon after he wanted to settle! She is definitely a quick draw! Ms. Olgesby was able to have my story told in front of the judge without me losing my daughter! If it were not for her; I would probably have lost my daughter on a default judgment!

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.
