Posted by Ronnie | December 16, 2009 | Child Custody

Inpeccable and irreplacable

Laura Gillis is a laywer that takes every case seperate and on a proffesional and yet personal level. Her consistancy with keeping me well informed of everything that was being done and was being sent concerning my case kept me at peace and gave me the utmost confidence in her legal knowledge and abi...lity to keep a proffesional composure in a courtroom setting that not only won my case,however gave me the greatest gift of all, MY SON. I would recommend her to anyone that needs a laywer that doesn't come to work to check on her financial standings with her clients, however she comes to work to check on her work which is the core of her profession. Her clients take presidence over anything. I could never repay her fo her services and would use her over and over when needed

Custody / Child Support

I would recommend Laura Gillis as a Lawyer. She is very knowledgeable and trust-worthy. I also think she is very compassionate about what she does. Laura also takes the time to discuss issues and concerns even when she is out of the office. She's the best!

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2024.

Reprimand and Probation issued in AZ, 2024

updated on 07/12/2024

Reprimand means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. While on probation, the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Reprimand issued in AZ, 2019

updated on 04/29/2019

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
