Excellent Attorney

7 reviews 5.0 star rating 12/27/2016 I was referred to Mr. Castellanos & I hired him to represent me in a divorce. I have been extremely pleased with his attention to detail, super quick response time, knowledge of my personal case & family law. He was always accessible & I consider him a wonder...ful asset. I don't know how I would have gotten through my multi-year divorce without his guidance & strategy. Mr. Castellanos was always prompt with my filings & kept me informed of what the next step was. He was firm with opposing counsel & was able to keep things on track despite the other sides non-stop games. His rates / billing are transparent & fair. He is not about just running up billable hours - because he is a man with great integrity. When I first filed, an advisor I trust told me the most important thing is to find an attorney I trust bc sometimes they will have to tell me things I don't like & if I trust them I can just take it for what it is & move forward. However if there isn't a level of trust I may second guess and put myself in legal jeopardy. I chose Gabriel Castellanos because I trust him with my life & he over delivered above my expectations. His staff is also super available, very knowledgeable & pleasant - which is important when going through such a difficult experience.

Knows his stuff

Gabriel has been a tremendous help with my DUI case. I have had a bad experience with a DUI lawyer previously and dealing with Gabriel was a pleasure. He made sure that no matter the cost I was taken care of. I felt like I really got the best possible outcome in my particular case.

Satisfied client

My lawyer was very attentive with my DUI case. He managed to work well with DA and was able to have my charge lowered to a "wet" reckless. Mr. Castellanos worked diligent to make sure that I received justice. I'm really happy with his services
