Will go the extra mile!!

We had a great experience working with Chandler. He was consistently available, responsive, and ultimately helped us secure 100% of our funds through a lien against the investor’s property—without the need for litigation. While we didn’t always agree on every step along the way, we trusted his jud...gment and strategy, and that trust paid off. He respected both our time and our money, kept us informed, and stayed focused on the end goal. We truly appreciate his dedication and would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND him to anyone navigating a complex real estate or investment dispute. Thank you Chandler!!

Persistance and skill

I am so very grateful for what Chandler did for me. I was the victim of a major scam and lost tens of thousands of dollars, a major part of my life savings at the time. The first attorney contacted basically shrugged it off as a lost cause. Chandler’s team; however, stepped in immediately, took my ...case seriously, filed a lawsuit, and even helped raise attention through a news segment. Once the lawsuit was filed and served, and the news story aired, I was able to recover the entire amount lost. Throughout the entire process, the attorneys and staff treated me with respect, kept me informed, and never gave up on getting justice. If you need someone with the skills and the persistence to win for you, I highly recommend Chandler and his team!

Best employment attorneys in San Diego.

I had a very unique situation that was handled with care, professionalism, and urgency. We live in a world where, when times are tough and help is hard to find, it’s often easier to throw your hands up and blame the universe. Fortunately, there are firms like Gietzen Law that still treat you like a h...uman being. They listen, they care, and most importantly, they get results. I couldn’t give Chandler and his team a stronger endorsement. If you’re going through a difficult situation and need experienced legal counsel, look no further. Gietzen Law will fight for you and treat you with the respect and attention you deserve.

Employment Lawyer for Severance Neogitation/Agreement

I worked with Chandler on a recent employment matter and had an excellent experience throughout the process. Chandler was patient, thorough, strategic, and highly communicative from start to finish. He took the time to clearly explain every step, outline potential paths forward, and make sure I un...derstood the implications of each decision. I never felt left in the dark. He was organized, responsive, and consistently aligned with my goals and interests throughout the engagement. What stood out most was his willingness to advocate firmly on my behalf while still remaining practical and thoughtful in his approach. He developed a clear step-by-step strategy, adjusted when needed, and helped navigate a stressful process with confidence and professionalism. If you’re looking for an employment attorney who is detail-oriented, communicative, and genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome for their client, I would highly recommend Chandler and the team at Gietzen, PC.

Strong Advocate, Better Results

We can't thank Chandler and his team enough for the incredible work they did on my case. This was not an easy case as it dragged on for years and the other side was incredibly difficult to deal with at every stage. Even so, Chandler and his team remained focused, patient, and completely committed t...o seeing it through. When it finally came time for trial, their preparation and confidence were clear. The result was a complete victory where we divested and removed our problematic partners, recovered over half a million in attorneys' fees, and even secured punitive damages for fraud. We are beyond grateful for the outcome and for having someone who fought so hard for us. I would absolutely recommend Chandler and his team to anyone in need of a strong advocate.
