Outstanding attorney with a person centered approach

I had the pleasure of working with Lee Gilgan from PAULSEN GILGAN & COTTLE on a complex business law matter, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the initial consultation to the resolution of the case, Lee demonstrated an exceptional understanding of business law intricacies and... provided clear, strategic guidance every step of the way. Their professionalism, client centered approach, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving the best outcome for their clients truly set them apart. I highly recommend Lee to anyone in need of expert legal representation for their business.

Recommendation

Lee Gilgan was kind enough to provide advice on a personal matter. He could have charged me much more to file some paperwork, but chose to honestly advise me otherwise. I appreciated his honesty and his effort, and would seek him out for assistance again if needed.

Trustworthy Lawyer

Excellent Lawyer!

Recently, I discussed with Mr. Gilgan details regarding an investment property that I am planning to purchase. In order to perform better due diligence, I contacted Mr. Gilgan to review the HOA documents. Mr. Gilgan performed at a high level. He adroitly discussed the HOA particulars including t...he bylaws. We spent time talking about considerations including landlord tenant law, all in a very comprehensible manner. If you can benefit from talking with a top notch lawyer, I can heartily recommend Mr. Gilgan.
