Pleased with results

After interviewing Stephen and looking for a competent, Christian, lawyer with experience in alcohol related cases for our college-aged son we hired Mr. Gustitis. He was very thorough, patient, helped calm our fears and we thought did a great job in getting the best possible outcome for our son. We... would hire him again (but hopefully we won't have to)!

Often times, patiently helping clients understand what is happening to them is the most important service we can provide. I am extremely thankful for the opportunity to help your son and your family navigate these troubling waters. Moreover, your generous review of the Firm and our services is very much appreciated. Please don't hesitate to call if you have any future questions or concerns.

Incredible experience!!!

Mr. Gustitis was the perfect choice to represent me, when I was arrested and charged with a DWI. He always treated me with respect, and was always willing to answer any question he had. The rest of the staff (especially Nelda) are incredible as well. They are always on top of wherever needs to be don...e. In my case, Mr. Gustitis was able to get my charges reduced and no conviction. You are wasting your money, and doing a disservice to yourself, if you choose any other attorney.

Professional and Knowledgeable - A+ Attorney

Mr. Gustitis was professional, understanding, and most importantly knowledgeable of the law. After a warrant for my arrest was issued, I admittedly took a while to get it resolved. I opted to hire an attorney to help resolve my case. Mr Gustitis was understanding, non-judgmental, and straightforwa...rd. Little did I know the warrant was unlawful, but Mr. Gustitis knew the law well and was able to cite why this was issued unlawfully, and I am finally able to rest easy after the case was dismissed. I will definitely use Mr Gustitis's services again if needed. The reviews are accurate, and Mr Gustitis is the real deal and will fight for your rights. Thank you!

Dear Nathan: I was so pleased your case concluded in such a satisfactory manner! Obviously, not all cases end in dismissals. But we learned that most defenses are buried in the details of the case. When we focus on those details, we increase the opportunity for a good result. In any case, thank you for your kind review of the Firm.

Excellent Lawyer

I hired Mr. Gustitis to represent my daughter in failure to identify case. She was a Texas A&M student, and had not had any prior interaction with the police before, and was scared of what would happen. Upon our first meeting with him, he very direct in discussing the situation, but was also very ...comforting to me and to my daughter. He listened and returned all of my calls promptly. His advise was very sound, and he was so helpful throughout the process. I think what sets him apart from other criminal lawyers besides his obvious high level of expertise, he actually cares about his clients. He always knew the status of the case and kept me very informed. His assistant, Nelda, is outstanding and wonderful to work with as well. I highly recommend his services if you want an exceptionally qualified, caring attorney to represent you in what is a very stressful event.

Stephen Gustitis Defense Attorney Review

I hired Mr. Gustitis for a felony drug charge that I had acquired. Immediately after I got out of jail, I went to his office. Although he is a very busy man, I did not have to wait long to meet with him. He and his assistant Nelda were very welcoming and thorough. In our initial meeting, Mr. Gust...itis heard my story then instantly began providing me with instructions on what I should be doing that would be beneficial to my case. He required an initial fee and provided me with a 5 month payment program for the remaining amount. This was the only monetary contribution that he required throughout the entire process. The goal was to get the felony reduced to a misdemeanor. It was a clean arrest, so we did not have much to work with. It was a long process; but after 22 months and numerous court resets, we had accomplished the goal. Despite the drawn out case, I never once detected any sense of pessimism or doubt from Mr. Gustitis, and I knew that he only wished the best for me. His assistant Nelda was also very helpful by providing me with court date reminders and other miscellaneous information. I am lucky and very grateful that I had hired such an excellent attorney. I would highly recommend Mr. Gustitis for anyone needing a defense attorney.
