The Man!!!!

I had 4 free phone consultations with other Family Law attorneys' before I spoke with Robert. He had me with in the fist 2 mins. He asked all the right questions and knew exactly what I needed. I am still currently going through the process of what has become a nasty divorce. Robert is straight f...orward yet very understanding of high emotions during times like these. He has tried to find ways to negotiate terms with opposing counsel so that we don't have to spend so much time at the courts meaning he's not trying to "pad" my bill. He responds to all of my communication in an extremely timely manner. I have faith that the outcome of my divorce will be what I need and what I was looking for as long as I have him on my side!

Outstanding

I had a horrible divorce attorney that I had to end up firing. I hired Mr. Gigliotti and he was able to settle everything in one court appearance. He was professional, and was able to work things out with opposing counsel who was very bitter because of my last attorney's games. Mr. Gigliotti was ver...y knowledgeable of the law and very responsive and thorough. I highly recommend him.

Review of Gigliotti Law Group

I was involved in a credit card debt settlement dispute with a collection agency that I had made $200.00/month payment to for a little over 8 years (100 months) and had never missed a payment during the entire period. I occasionally would check in with the collection agency for my balance until I wa...s told in the last but one month that I had one more payment to fulfill my obligation, which I did only to get a summons a few months later that I had reneged on the agreement because there was another $180 left to pay. So I sent them the check for $180 but they refused to accept it and wanted me to pay over $37,000.00 which included legal, court fees and penalties. I tried on several occasions to reason with them but they were intransigent ant that's when a friend referred me to the Gigliotti Law Group for legal representation. I am always leery of lawyers but Mr. Gigliotti put me at ease and after reviewing my case and asking a few questions, I could sense he was going to fight on my behalf. A couple of weeks later he sent me a draft of a letter to review for accuracy, that he was sending to the collection agency. He would frequently call and give me updates until four to six weeks later I got a letter from the Gigliotti Law Group, with an enclosed settlement offer from the collection agency stipulating that my case will be dismissed after sending them $180. It was such a relief to receive the final letter from the collection agency indicating that my case was done with. I have since called on the Gigliotti Law Group on other legal matters and they have been very helpful and fair to me. I would recommend them whenever I have the opportunity. Regards Charles

Amazingly helpful

Robert was there with me every step of the way, explaining everything in detail no matter how many questions I asked!

Attorney

He was very professional, always responded promptly. Made me feel like he was truly vested in my outcome. My first attorney was horrible and constantly wanted me to fight for issue that is was not vested in. Mr. Gigliotti heard what I said and when possible work with the other side to avoid further... fighting. I have referred him to my sister and a few co workers and they all agree, if you want a great attorney in your corner then you need to hire Mr. Gigliotti

Family lawyer | Apr 04

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Over a period of years Mr. Gigliotti has been opposing counsel in several family law cases in Los Angeles and Ventura counties. He has an in depth command of the law, and family law procedure. Hi zealously protects his client's rights, but also looks for ways to negotiate settlement of disputed issues that would likely be the result if fully litigated, thus saving his client money. Mr. Gigliotti is an excellent lawyer."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I strongly endorse Mr. Gigliotti after seeing his work on the other side of cases. As a matter of fact, I have referred people to him when clients wanted or needed an attorney closer to their home. He is a real gentleman, something our profession sorely lacks, and is a very skilled, compassionate advocate."
