Excellent Attorney in a Time of Need

We would definitely recommend Stephen Gustitis Law. Our son was charged with a DUI in Burleson County earlier this year. These charges and the situation were stressful for him and us. When we first met Mr. Gustitis he could tell we were in unfamiliar territory. His calm demeanor, clear informatio...n, and genuine personality put us at ease. He and his paralegal Nelda helped us navigate this difficult situation with excellent legal guidance, patience, and understanding. Mr. Gustitus was able to negotiate dismissal of my son’s charges and we are extremely pleased with the outcome. We also can’t say enough about Nelda who is amazing. She was always there to answer questions and kept us posted on upcoming court dates. Nelda’s professionalism and cheerful attitude were so calming and reassuring for my son and us during this trying period.

Thank you for taking time to review our Firm and the legal services we recently provided to your son. I am equally pleased with the outcome of this case! And even though results matter, I am equally pleased that our customer service was just as satisfying. Nelda and I appreciate your strong recommendation and wish your family all the best. Being a parent of young adults myself, I understand how stressful these situations can be. It was an honor for us to help you.

Great Lawyer, Great Person

This being the first time in trouble with the law (DWI), I was lost, shaken, and confused. Mr. Gustitus, and his office, was the first call I made. He met with me the same day I called. We met and before discussing the situation I was in, he took the time to get to know myself so that when we did get... down to business, my nerves had calmed. Throughout my legal process, he never hesitated to answer questions, over the phone or in person, which was important to me to have that face-to-face communication. His character made me comfortable every step of the way. Also, Nelda is one of the nicest people I have ever met. She also helped with any questions I had. In the end, his up-to-date knowledge of law helped with our navigation to get my charges reduced. Everything he helped me with, he will also do for any person needing guidance.

Please never hesitate to contact Nelda or myself if questions arise in the future. Thank you, again!

Simply the Best

Mr. Gustitis did a very thorough job explaining the long and tedious process of DUI cases with my son, who was a college sophomore at the time. We knew what to expect because he had warned us ahead of time. Initially, my son's case seemed like a lost situation from the start, and Mr. Gustitis expla...ined that there might not be much we could do, but not to give up hope until all of the facts were available. He was right, and we were lucky. When our case was ready for trial almost 2 years later, there were some facts that allowed Mr. Gustitits some room for negotiation and he was able to get my son's charges reduced from a class A to a class B offense, which significantly helped. I truly feel that Mr. Gustitis and his assistant, Nelda, who was also with us all the way, helping us through, were worth the cost. If you need an attorney who knows the system and will help explain things to you up front, Mr. Gustitis is your attorney.

Nelda and I are very pleased we could help your family through this difficult situation! And I know the Class B reduction will really help when the time comes to possibly seal these records. Thank you for the opportunity to serve and protect the ones that are so important to you. If you ever have additional questions, please don't hesitate to call!

Best There Is

I called Mr. Gustitis on a Sunday, a SUNDAY, figured I would just "leave a message" with some answering service, within 10 minutes, he calls me, goes over my case with me on the phone, and that is when I knew "this is my attorney". Having heard about Mr. Gustitis from a colleague that goes to church ...with him, that really helped sealing the deal. Then there's Nelda, his AMAZING secretary, keeping you informed through the whole thing, I have never met anyone like her. Mr. Gustitis was extremely knowledgeable not only in law, but takes an "outside the box" approach with going into the science side of things as well. Never was I left feeling nervous about my case after talking with Mr. Gustitis, he is honest, upfront, and most of all, professional, always making me to feel like my case was the only one he was working on. I highly recommend Stephen Gustitis.

He is a 5 star attorney

We were those parents who thought we would never need a lawyer for our kids. Never say never. We had a son who got into some trouble with the law. Stephen helped us navigate this difficult time. He was extremely understanding and helpful. He guided us through with excellent legal guidance. It took al...most 2 years to complete this legal journey and we were grateful for Stephen's ability to guide us through the legal system. We were all extremely pleased with the outcome. I have to add that his assistant, Nelda is so friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend Stephen to anyone
