John C Gilmore Jr

I have known John Gilmore personally for over 14 years. I hired him for a guardianship case in 2004, the case lasted almost a year, and during that time John was always available 24/7 to explain and help me with the emotional toll these cases take on. He explained everything clearly every step of the... way, he was always on time, always prepared for the trials and I knew with him as my lawyer I would win and I did. Every person that was involved with the legal proceedings had the utmost respect for John and told me so. Everyone that I have ever met that had any dealings with John personally or professionaly has nothing but postive things to say about him. I believe that anyone that has the privilege to hire John Gilmore will be more that satisfied with the results as I was. As a small business owner I understand the importance of having someone helping you that has your best interests at heart and knowing that you will be treated fairly, both financially and honestly. John Gilmore is more than both, he goes beyond the "call of duty".

I was from out of state and John Gilmore was recommended to me by a friend in Az. I still talk about John a lot to my friends and how much he helped to save my 2 grandaughters. Because of John, my grandaughters are healthy, happy and safe forever. I will be forever grateful in his fight to bring t...hese children home to grandparents that loved them more than anything in the world. John always answered all my phone calls and e-mails immediately. Kept me informed on everything from beginning to end. If it were not for John Gilmore I really don't know what I would have done. Our family had never been involved in any child abuse case in our family. I met him under very difficult circumstances and he made me comfortable from that first meeting up to our last when we brought the girls home. He also has a wonderful assistant that I talked to many times when John was in court. I thank John for everything he did to make our family happy again and complete.

John was a saving grace. We were out of state clients and needed representation local in Tuscon to get custody of a child. We tried battling the system on our own for months even tried finding an attorney on our own and were disappoint twice to hear from these attorney's that we didn't have a case.... So frustrated that we weren't making progress we contacted a family member who is a lawyer who contacted some law school associates in Arizona and John was one of two that came highly recommended. My husband and I decided to go with whomever called back first. John called the same day. He was instantly comforting, thought we had a case, sympathetic and didn't promise anything but to plead our position. Within a month of contacting him, John had a hearing set. Five months later we have the child in our care and are proceeding with adoption. Now I know not everyone's case can have a happy ending such as ours, but John will try his best to support you, stay within the law and fight for what's in the best interest. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts John.

John Gilmore, Jr was highly recommended to me by two separate contacts as the best family law and child dependency lawyer in town. After retaining him for for my case, I could not agree more! In my first meeting with Mr. Gilmore he patiently outlined the child dependency process to me, explained t...he options available to me, and shared his thoughts based on his years of experience. This was all very new to me but I felt I was in good hands. During my case there were many appearances in court. Mr. Gilmore was always thoroughly prepared for court and took the time to explain to me the purpose of the hearings and the possible outcomes. He was respectful to all parties involved at all times, both in and out of the court room. He was trustworthy and displayed the highest level of integrity. As my case progressed Mr. Gilmore promptly communicated updates and developments to me. He counseled me as to when he and I did or did not need to appear in court. He clearly explained the various documents and hearings and provided his recommendations. He answered my questions and was efficient in his use of time spent on my case between email, telephone, and in-person meetings. I never felt rushed or that my time was under used, and he was always available and responsive. Mr. Gilmore was also resourceful and assisted me in finding training classes and other support systems offered through the court system and the community. These were really quite helpful and worth my time. It is apparent that Mr. Gilmore is quite knowledgeable of the dependency process and the juvenile court system. When I first met Mr. Gilmore I had no idea what to expect in the upcoming eighteen months. It was an emotional journey for me that ended favorably for myself and my family. I feel that Mr. Gilmore's extensive talents, professional demeanor, and many years of experience contributed to this positive outcome. I would, without hesitation, recommend Mr. Gilmore as the finest child abuse lawyer in Tucson.

Mr. Gilmore represented us in a placement review hearing. It was a highly complex case that involved numerous witnesses. This was a difficult time and he proved to be highly compassionate as he patiently explained the legal process, answering all questions with a great deal of legal knowledge. Du...ring the trial, Mr. Gilmore proved to be well-prepared and a highly skilled advocate for our position. Ultimately, our position was supported by the Court and we were very satisfied with the legal services Mr. Gilmore provided.
