Gerry has been my attorney for more than six years, giving me the unique perspective of working with him through every stage of a long and emotionally difficult custody case. He helped me navigate a situation in which my child was living in an unsafe environment with their other parent. Throughout... the entire process, Gerry remained professional, ethical, and thoughtful in his approach. There were times when I wished he would be more aggressive, but I came to realize that his calm, measured demeanor earned the respect and trust of the judges, which is how cases are actually won. Seeing the credibility he had with the court ultimately gave me confidence to trust his guidance, even when it wasn't what I initially wanted to hear. More than anything, Gerry truly embodied the role of a counselor, not just an attorney. Over the years, he helped me manage the emotional weight of the case, kept me grounded during incredibly difficult moments, and consistently provided wise, steady guidance as we moved forward one step at a time. Today, my child is in a completely different place in life than when we first began working together. I can't help but believe that Gerry's counsel, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to doing things the right way fundamentally changed the trajectory of my child's life for the better. My family and I will always be grateful to have had Gerry advocating for us. His integrity, judgment, and dedication allowed justice to prevail, and the positive impact of his work will be felt by our family for years to come.

Gerald helped with a custody case where my son wanted to live with me in my home state. I had a lawyer in my home state and Gerald in CA. Gerald came highly recommended by my original lawyer. He reviewed my case and stayed on top of every filling needed. He was willing to discuss all of my options an...d never was I left feeling that my son's and my concerns were not addressed. If ever there was a question, he would respond almost immediately. I can say that I feel and observed he is an expert at what he does. Everything worked out for the best and I couldn't be happier with the support received.

From the initial consultation and throughout the life of my divorce/custody case (just over a year) Mr. Maggio and his team did an excellent job of listening to me vent, answering my millions of questions, and succeeding on what I wished my final outcome to be. They were well prepared and completed a...ll tasks in a timely matter. I couldn't be happier with my representation. At the end of it all, I was awarded full legal/physical custody of my two children, they assisted in getting child support situated, and visitation orders went per my preference. I had many complicated factors in my case such as DV Protective orders, residency issues, child support, just to name a few. There was nothing i or my ex threw at them that they didnt know how to handle. I would without a doubt recommend Mr. Maggio and his team. I couldn't be more grateful and appreciative for all their hard work.

I have hired Gerry twice to help me with child support, and child custody. On both occasions the case was handled professionally with favorable outcomes. His team was respectful, and responded to inquiries promptly. His fees were fair and well worth the money. I highly recommend, and would not hesita...te to retain his services in the future.

To say I had a challenging situation is an understatement. I hired Gerry and the amount of passion and professionalism he exerted in my case (divorce/custody) was a breath of fresh air. Gerry truly cared about me and my case and I could not have been happier with his service. Going through my situ...ation was not easy but i could not have done it without Gerry. I would recommend him hands down over any other attorney in OC. He has a calm demeanor, and he is extremely knowledgeable and will fight for his clients in their best interest.
