Best child custody lawyer
I hired Chuck and went from every other weekend visitations to sole legal and physical custody. It didn't happen over night, and it took diligence and perseverance from both of us and I couldn't have done it without his representation. I have had many lawyers in the past and it's truly hard to get ...

Best decision I made.
In the nearly 2 years we have worked with Chuck we learned what a caring and honest man he is. He didn't tell us what we wanted to hear nor did he ever try to over inflate our expectations. When we talked with Chuck he always listened and asked questions. He also took notes of anything we had concern...

Professional and Personable
Chuck has conducted my divorce and custody case with expertise, concern, and spontaneous requests to include successful representation through the Supreme Court. I would highly recommend him for any matter concerning family court. He is the best!

Amazing Counsel
From the first time I met Charles, I was given a sense of confidence knowing he was going to fight his hardest for me and my daughter. I was never late I finding out anything, even if it required a phone call on the weekend on his personal time! I highly recommend Charles and the staff at Gravis Law ...

Unorganized
Highly unorganized and not detail oriented. I had to review and second guess what I was told because there were repeated errors. Doesn't follow through to meet promised deadlines, seemed overwhelmed. I should have followed my gut and changed attorneys.
I regret that your experience with us was not favorable; my goal for many years has been to listen carefully to any concerns which a client may have, so they can be addressed properly as the cases are being resolved. As the other reviews suggest, I have reason to believe I've been mostly successfully meeting this goal for nearly 40 years of practice.
"I endorse this lawyer. Charles is highly respected in the legal community. He was my professor in community property and is a very skilled and talented lawyer and professor for whom I have a great deal of respect. He is a zealous advocate for his clients and I highly recommend this lawyer."
"Charles is tremendous attorney. He has a deep knowledge of the law, and is an exceptional advocate for his clients."
"Charles Bauer's many years of experience and his knowledge of the law is second to none! Charles is a very successful and accomplished Family law attorney and I highly recommend him to any potential client in need."
"I endorse this lawyer and would recommend Mr. Bauer to anyone looking for a quality family law attorney."
