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.

Wonderful experience during difficult time

From the very first call, Gordon Lotzkar provided sound legal advice. He advocated for me and protected me during a very messy divorce. This was no easy feat as my ex-husband is an attorney himself. In the end, I was able to get the financial result I wanted without going to trial and for a fraction ...of the cost of large law firms. He was always available, even when he was out of the country. He was responsive, trustworthy, professional and attentive. I would recommend Mr. Lotzkar to anyone going through a high conflict divorce. I am forever grateful for Gordon’s honest and direct communication and advocacy. For someone who has had a hard time being heard, he helped me find my voice.

Great lawyer. Saw me through a tough divorce

I availed the services of Lotzkar Law Firm for my divorce. It was a long drawn out case as there was a child involved and my ex-husband was not the easiest person to work with. Gordon and his staff guided me through each step of the way as I went to them when I was in dire need having just got o...ut of an abusive relationship. Gordon kept me sane and knew when it was time to play hardball with my ex and also when it was time to keep me reasonable. He never lost sight of the endgame which was to get me the divorce with the best result that I can get within a reasonable cost. Based on his vast 27 years of experience in family law, he has a thorough understanding of the law, the court system and how the judges/mediators like to rule. He was always available when I needed to ask his advice or when I wanted a clarification. He also spoke multiple times to my ex-spouse’s attorney to speed up the responses and proceedings. His staff were a god send, always being there to answer my nitpicking questions and managed all the documentation. I would definitely recommend the Lotzkar law firm for any divorce issues

Excellent in high conflict divorces

Gordon was very supportive from the start. I was in a very vulnerable position and he taught me a lot about abuse; helped me to open my eyes. He pushed me when I needed to stand up for myself which was very difficult for me, but was always respectful of my choices. He played fair with the opposing c...ounsel and was not disrespectful, as he knew this was important to me, but still fought hard for my rights. His assistant, Misti, is amazing. She is very detail oriented and does not make any mistakes; they work wonderful as a team. The office is always available within a day to respond to your needs. Gordon really puts his heart into his work and truly cares about your situation and helping you.
