Excellent Attorney with Impeccable Character I have known Mr. Gavilanes personally and professionally since 2014. In the five years that I have known him, he has demonstrated impeccable legal judgment, community engagement, and a high caliber of professionalism. I have referred many of my clients to his office for personal injury cases, and he is the only attorney in the area that I trust to refer these cases to, especially for those from the Latino/a community. I have also trusted Mr. Gavilanes with my own personal injury case, for which I am extremely grateful for his assistance and his responsiveness at every step of the process. I highly recommend his services.

I worked alongside Diego at a Citizenship Day event in Mount Vernon. He is upbeat, personable, and extremely knowledgeable. Great immigration attorney.

Ron Meyers, Personal injury Attorney on Jun 24, 2014
Relationship: Worked for lawyer
I endorse this lawyer. I worked for Diego when I was studying to take the bar examination after finishing law school more than 30 years ago. He was smart, hard working and a tireless advocate for his clients. He encouraged me to work with him on an apartment fire case involving the death of a young child. That experience influenced my career. He is a mentor and a great lawyer!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I have known Diego for over 30 years. He was just fresh out of law school working for the downtrodden and poor at the now defunct Evergreen Legal Services. As he branched out to his own private practice, I have worked with him jointly with dissolution cases that included immigration issues. Diego has referred cases to me and I have referred cases to him as I find his work to be superior. I trust Diego and have no problem in endorsing my long time friend and peer.
Cornelia Clark, Immigration Attorney on May 30, 2014
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I endorse this lawyer. Mr Gavilanes is a great attorney. Not only do I know him as a fellow attorney and I have referred many matters to him with great outcome, but I also know him as my attorney. He did my immigration for me and it went very smoothly and it made the process real easy. I would definitely recommend him.
I endorse this lawyer. I have known Diego for over 30 years and once worked in the same law firm for about five years. He is one of the most ethical, honest and conscientious lawyers I know. He strives to do the right thing. I also consider him my friend.
