Posted by Christy | November 28, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Honest, Responsive , Professional

I was very grateful for the excellent service that Jason Gaber of Gaber Law Firm provided to me over the course of my contentious divorce. He represented me for the entire two years that my case dragged on and it felt like I was his only client from day one. I knew that I could trust him; he was alw...ays very reliable, responsive, precise and thorough. He made a difficult situation much easier, was always prepared and has a sense of humor that kept me going even in the toughest of times. On a professional note, he had clear billing statements and I never felt that he was looking to get every last dime from me – he honestly wanted to help close my case as soon as we could to avoid more unnecessary fees to battle the exhausting gas-lighting that was thrown at me. Jason was a great help in dealing with the court system and my troublesome ex, giving me clear instructions, standing up for my interests and representing me in trial, anyone would be lucky to have him as representation. Thank you for the solid foundation my daughter and I needed.

Excellent Advocate for Dissolution of Marriage

I met with several attorneys before hiring Jason and knew from the consultation phone call he was going to be a good fit. Jason was diligent and patient with me during my divorce this past year. As the breadwinner and Mother, I had a lot at stake. He kept me calm during a difficult time and represen...ted my well during all negotiations. I have recommended him to my close friends and am recommending his services here. You can trust you will be in good hands.

Honest, Dedicated and Well Communicating Attorney

Although it took a bit more than 1 ½ years to finalizing the divorce, without the tireless leadership, persistent/active communication to coordinate with his client as well as the utmost importantly the critical legal representation from Mr. Gaber, the divorce could have easily taken a bad turn; pro...bably costed me significantly more out of my income along with not being able to meet all those date sensitive ‘must do’ requirements by the court system. Who knows...? I could still be battling the legal situation with this divorce if I didn’t go with Mr. Gaber. Mr. Gaber is also on a list of highly recommended attorneys in the area of my residence by my company’s Employee Assistance Program and Work/Life Solutions. Very dedicated and reliable attorney once again… I reemphasize. I admire his dedication to his clients, his research skills, and the way he handles himself in a court room situation. I highly recommend his services on all levels. I would not wish this tough and ‘hard-to-deal-with-situation’ process on anyone. But if it ever happens, I would recommend Mr. Gaber to keep you grounded, informed, and provide reasonable and timely advice and to get you the final outcome (more in your favor) as quickly as possible.

Very dedicated and reliable lawyer

Very dedicated and reliable lawyer. Jason represented me two times over the past four years (Superior Court King County and Pierce County). Both times I was being sued by my ex-husband, relating to our divorce, 22 years ago. I admire his dedication to his clients, his research skills, and the way ...he handles himself in a quart room situation. I highly recommend his services on all levels.

Great service!

Jason helped me through a separation. His knowledge and expertise helped to make a difficult experience bearable. Jason was always available for questions and concerns. While he gave honest recommendations, he also never pressured me into a decision. Instead, he made all the information available... so I could make the decision that was right for me. Jason was also very upfront with payment information and filing costs. When we appeared in court, Jason was prepared and ready for multiple possibilities. I would highly recommend Jason, and would hire him again if the need arose.
