Thankful for this excellent attorney's counsel

Aaron was especially helpful to me during an employment issue. So much so that I felt compelled to give him this review. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He was a great listener - thoughtful, understanding, and excellent at communicating the stakes when it came to different issues, or paths we m...ight take. No detail was too small to cover, no question was too basic to answer. When it came to the complex questions, he broke down every hypothetical and walked us through every scenario. He put a ton of effort and energy into our case, and always made us feel like our needs were the top priority, no matter what we decided to do. Excellent attorney, I would search him out and work with again in a heartbeat. - Ben B.

He won my case! Fast, professional results!

I had no money to hire a lawyer when my employer shorted my hours, falsified my overtime and didn't pay me fairly for travel mileage, so I went on a legal matching website. Within hours, Mr. Brock's team responded to my post for legal help. Within a few days, the consent forms to be represented we...re in my mailbox and the ball was in my court to provide the proof of my claim and state my case. While my case may not be typical, I produced my evidence and presented a legitimate claim of being shorted on wages and wronged by an employer, and from that moment Mr. Brock assured me I had a Fighting Chance of winning my claim with his representation. Mr. Brock personally communicated with me every step of the way, answering my questions, and was even able to settle my claim out of court within months. In a legal system that is often confusing and even misleading to the average person like me, it's nice to know that my first and hopefully last experience with a lawyer was such a pleasant experience. Mr. Brock really does care about his clients and really does stand for people that have been wronged by employers or injured. He was completely professional and polite. Not only did he change my entire perspective of lawyers and the legal system, he proved to me that if you have been wronged and can prove it, there is justice and he can help you find it. Personally, I think the guy could run for any office and win.

Brock & Gonzales, LLP

People never want to find themselves in a position where they need the services of a Personal Injury Attorney. Unfortunately that's exactly what happened to me recently. I was suffering and called Brock & Gonzales, LLP. I knew immediately I was in good hands. Aaron Brock listened to my story with... a professional yet sympathetic ear and after explaining what he felt were my best options, asked me to think about our discussion before making such an important decision. He offered his services if at any point I decided I needed an attorney. I'm so glad I called him back! He was able to help me resolve things as quickly as possible enabling me to get back on the road to recovery. My life improved from the moment I made that first phone call! I thank Aaron Brock and Tim Gonzales and everyone at their firm from the bottom of my heart. It was a pleasure to be represented by such kind, professional lawyers. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a personal injury lawyer, or any type of lawyer for that matter.

Great Experience

Aaron did an amazing job representing my mother and I. We were in a bad car accident and would have been completely lost without Aaron's representation. In my opinion, what separates his firm from others, is the compassion and endless work ethic they put forth on behalf of their clients. In my experi...ence, Aaron always kept us abreast as to what was taking place, and at no point did I ever have to worry about our case. His firm is as good as it gets. The compensation we received was far beyond my expectations. Having worked with Aaron and his firm made me realize there are still good, honest, hard working, ethical, people out there. I cannot express how grateful I am to Aaron and his team for their sincerity and hard work. He did all of the work and an amazing job of keeping us calm throughout the process. If you need representation, I would highly recommend this firm. I feel whole again, and I owe that to Aaron and his firm.

Unprofessional, Dismissive, and Not Worth Your Trust

I approached this attorney with a serious and complex employment case, hoping to find someone professional and supportive. Unfortunately, the experience I had was the opposite. Our initial call lasted less than five minutes. I was constantly interrupted, rushed, and not allowed to explain the cont...ext of my situation. At one point, I was told — quite shockingly — to read my entire complaint out loud on the phone, even though it had already been written in an email. When I pushed back and explained that it wasn’t something I could just “read aloud,” I was told to “just say one word” to explain why this happened to me. That kind of approach is not only dismissive, it’s insulting to someone going through a long, difficult experience. After that call, I provided full documentation and a clear timeline of events. I also sent my availability for a follow-up, but no call was made during the times I shared. Instead, the attorney attempted to call when I had already said I wouldn’t be available. It felt like I had to chase for basic communication, and yet nothing came of it. To this day, there’s no indication that my documents were even reviewed. This is not someone I would trust with a serious legal matter. If you’re looking for someone who will actually listen, show up, and handle your case with the care and depth it deserves, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.
