Best Decision I Ever Made

Choosing Gordon Lotzkar to be my attorney was the best decision I ever made. He is professional and honest. He helped me through a very difficult and emotional time. He truly listened to me and explained every step of the process. He has integrity and lots of experience which he used to get the best ...outcome for my case. He focused on the priorities and didn’t waste any time, money, or effort. He made a very difficult case bearable and cared about the end result for me and my son. Gordon and his paralegal Misti were always available to discuss the case, talk things through, or just calm me down. I would highly recommend Gordon to anyone who needs an awesome attorney.

Gordon understood my goals and helped me achieve them

Gordon listened to me to understand the sensitive aspects of my case. He helped me some to a satisfactory agreement in a somewhat high risk case, in a way that was consistent with my values, so that I'd be able to respect myself later on. He helped me protect myself when opposing counsel used some ...interesting tactics. In the mediation process we were able to arrive at an agreement that was within my acceptable range. It's now been two years since then, and I'm still at peace about the process and the outcome. Gordon did a great job of understanding my needs and getting to a viable resolution, even when things had looked bleak.

professional/no nonsense approach!

I recently and rather unexpectedly found myself in need of representation and without anything in place, I was looking for strong representation who could take my case on. I've been intrigued ever since the moment Mr. Lotzkar's name came up during conversations as it was followed by "this attorney w...orks off referrals only" comments. I was impressed since the initial contact with Gordon - from his responsiveness, ability to replay back to me what I communicated to his willingness to review all reasonable options before we take next steps. I also truly enjoyed the simplicity of Representation Agreement, making the overall experience feel like a partnership - something that is far from anything else I have experienced during legal proceedings up to this point.

Highly recommended

I would highly recommend Gordon Lotzkar to anyone seeking honest and fair legal representation. He has represented me in my divorce, in the most professional manner. He has been an asset in the process with his legal abilities, thoughts, suggestions and sincerity. He practices with integrity and h...e has always had my best interest in mind. He's very responsive with all forms of communication, does not focus on unnecessary nonsense and tries to keep the financial burden for his clients to a minimum. He is someone you can put your trust and faith in and he does his job well.

Domestic violence family case

Mr.Lotzkar is an excellent attorney that helped me through a very contentious and emotionally charged family case. He is always realistic, explained my options so that I could make my own decision, takes time to listen to what you have to say and explains his strategy to you thoroughly. No matter his... case load, Mr.Lotzkar always made himself available to discuss my case with me, even on weekends and holidays. I would recommend him for anyone seeking help in a divorce, support, custody or moving with children case.
