Posted by David | May 08, 2013 | Child Custody

Very professionsal/informal and all around great lawyer

I am a single father that has been in my daughters life from day one, when the mother of my child and I decided to co-parent I was hit with a parenting plan asking for supervised visitation rights as well as she was asking for me to pay 900-1000 a month for one child. I thought I was doomed and that ...one I would barely ever get to see my kid and two I thought I was going to be broke to where I would not even be able to provide for my myself and more importantly my kid. Luckily I came across Jason Gaber whom I had a meeting with and after hearing what he had to say I decided to hire him on as my attorney. Long story short I have my child 2 days a week and everyother weekend, I do pay child support but it is a fair amount so I am able to still support myself as well as my kid. Jason was ALWAYS very informative and updated me on EVERYTHING that was going on with my case. He would break things down to me and explain them in non legal terms. All in all Jason is a top notch lawyer that will do whatever possible for his client.

Great Lawyer

I hired Jason Gaber to represent me in a child custody case. He was extremely helpful, kind and courteous. He did an excellent job. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Posted by Laurie | March 24, 2011 | Family

Honest, hard-working and very capable attorney! I recommend Mr. Gaber.

Mr. Gaber represented my family in a highly complex, very difficult family and custody matter. He worked closely with us for two years, and we are extremely satisfied with his services. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend Mr. Gaber. I hope I never need the services ...of an attorney again, but if I do, I will turn to the Gaber Law Firm!

Divorce and Custody Battle

From the moment I met Jason over the phone I felt very comfortable that he would do a good job of representing me in my case. I originally called him before I started my proceedings and explained my situation to him. He gave me some great advice which I used to position myself for a more favorable ...result in the end. Jason is extremely knowledgeable in family law as I asked him many questions on many different scenarios and was always patient and helpful in guiding me the best way to deal with a spouse who was extraordinarily difficult to resolve my issues with. To put it another way, she was somewhat crazy and sick and forced me into many tough and unfortunate circumstances and frustration. Through it all I knew and felt that Jason was working very hard for me and when many of the legal documents were drawn up he showed great expertise and compelling evidence which was extremely helpful. Being in a legal system where I truly believe it favors the woman I far exceeded what I originally thought I could attain in a divorce. Neither pary ever wins, however, I was able to keep intact most of the things I worked long and hard for during my life including custody of my 2 boys. On top of his great advice, and expertise Jason is not what I consider your arrogant type of lawyer, but is in fact a very friendly, respectful, polite person. Someone in fact I wold like to consider my friend. As long as you listen to what he suggests you do concerning the legal system and how the courts work, I know that Jason will postition you for the best reasonable results

Invaluable and one of the best Family Law Attorney's in the Seattle area

I retained Jason Gaber about 3 years ago for a very brief time. He was very helpful and informed me on everything. Very professional and knowledgeable. I had no worries with the way he handled my case. When I needed to seek legal counsel again, I wanted to retain him to represent me. He is a won...derful attorney and passionate about his work. I appreciate his hard work.
