Hire her!

In July 2015 Anita Gumm took on my divorce and settlement matter, which had previously been worked on by two other firms, neither of which made much progress on it but had happily overcharged for their services nonetheless. In doing so, she stepped into a contentious fight against a well-known Los A...ngeles law firm that has served Britney Spears and David Hasselhoff. She handled them, their various attempts to bully her, and my case calmly, cleanly and effectively, always standing her ground but never stooping to their tactics. No matter how busy her court schedule, she made time for my phone calls and emails. I came to greatly value her advice. I am now a free woman because of her. She cannot be recommended highly enough.

Dear Anonymous, I'm sorry you are disappointed with my legal work as you are one of the few to ever complain about about me. If you would like to call my office, I'm happy to explain what was done on your case and why. I look forward to hearing from you.

Rude, irresponsible, and unethical.

The attorney and her staff were rude every time we interacted over the phone and the opening line of all (3) phone calls would be, "I have limited time". Nevertheless, they will bill you as if they provided you with a competent and full service. They don't! The client (me) interests and priorities s...eem to be of no concern to anyone in this firm but specially to Anita Gumm who seem to take cases solely for the income and not to defend her clients. Point being, I had to do the reading, and analysis of, documents sent from the opposition and then tell this "lawyer" what I thought was against my best interest- that's their work, to fight for you- BE WARE this firm and lawyer won't do that for you. Finally, she (Anita Gumm) will allow her friendship with other attorneys (opposition) supersede her clients interests. Absolutely unethical practice. Stay away from this firm and lawyer.

This anonymous review is puzzling as Gumm & Green is always concerned about the client's welfare and good results above all else. I invite this anonymous person to contact our office to resolve his/her issues at any time.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
