Gordon is an Ice Breaker in the Iceberg Infested waters of Family Court

Mr Lotzkar is an astonishing attorney & litigator, he guided me through 7 years of one of the most toxic custody battle known in King County. My custody increased 3 seperate times while simultaneously dodging the evil kitchen sink thrown at me by my ex-girlfriend and endless attorney's she had. Wh...at truly cannot be said enough, is Mr Lotzkar's ability to shine and litigate tough situations in the courtroom. He should be on Live TV with his own show in all honesty... he is intelligent, articulate, charasmatic, sharp, organized and has a very positive mindset. I must also add, that Mr. Lotzkar's legal team and assistants are amazing. They will also yell at you when you are sending them meaningless things and wasting time on the phone (time is money), Mr Lotzkar is very aware of overcharging clients and sets his sight on the end goal along with being aware of your financial situation. He is very honest, very fair, doesn't play dirty, agressive when needed and knows the Family Court Playground better than anyone. With good communication and laid out evidence, Mr Lotzkar will fight and win for you in court. Listen to him and get him what he needs!

Great Decision!

Gordon was who I hired when my first attorney was not doing the job. Everything from him was on point, professional, timely and I couldn't ask for a better attorney. Wish I had known him when I first started this ordeal.

You Want Him On Your Side

Gordon handled our post secondary education case with swiftness and efficiency. Not only does he explain all your options to you but encourages you on what’s best based on the predicted outcome of said action(s). He is respected amongst his colleagues which makes it easier to resolve things in a shor...ter period of time, which ultimately ends up costing you less money. He also handled our case when my ex tried to take me back to court outside the timeframe allowed and it was dismissed before ever stepping foot in a courtroom. Highly recommend if you find yourself in these difficult circumstances as he makes it better!

Highly recommend!

When I hired the Lotzkar Law Firm, I felt like I was between a rock and a hard place. I was a brand new father head over heals with my newborn little girl, and I wanted to ensure that I had the right to raise her and play a significant role in her life.  I felt a child should have equal time with ...both parents, while the mother felt it best that I was limited to two hours, twice a week. I knew it was going to be an uphill battle. Gordon and his staff worked very hard on my behalf. I was never promised a particular result. Instead Gordon was always very honest as to what the possible outcomes were at any given point even when it wasn’t what I wanted to hear.  But he never stopped fighting to get what I felt was best for my daughter, and he produced results. In the end, due to his extensive experience in family law along with his dedicated staff, I was able to secure a tremendous amount of time with my daughter in a parenting plan that would transition into 50/50 custody.  My daughter is almost two years old, and she and I have an amazing bond.  I am beyond grateful to be able to look back and see the instrumental role that I’ve been able to play in her life. Thanks to Gordon and his team at Lotzkar Law Firm, I haven’t missed a thing.   I am so thankful for Gordon and the Lotzkar Law team, and I recommend this team without reservation to anyone facing a tough custody challenge.
