Gina Maria Costello

Gina has experience in cases like mine that involve domestic violence, but she perpetuates more abuse by victim blaming and shaming. I didn't read her reviews until after I hired her-my mistake! Most of the negative reviews could have been written by me. It became clear that Gina had not prep...ared for my trial, so when I questioned her she withdrew from my case without explanation. I haven't received any billing statements so there was no accounting for billable hours- she kept the entire retainer fee. Among her peers, she has a reputation for missing court, not replying to emails and calls, and being uncooperative. She raises her voice and uses verbally abusive and foul language to her own clients. I hope Gina decides that it's possible to be respectful and respectable, and still be effective in her profession.

I was searching for a divorce attorney and already interviewed with couple of them. I was not satisfied with any of them until I gave a Call to Gina M Costello, after couple minutes talk, I noticed right away this is my Attorney, I relied on Gina and her great paralegals and office staff for this..., they never disappointed me. This great group of people were there for me every step of the way and always answered my emails/calls in a timely manner. If your case involves a trial, know that Gina will be there to defend you like no one else. I could not have asked for a better outcome for my case, and I owe it all to Gina and her team for being so wonderful through it all. I would highly recommend her as a lawyer to anyone. She is both extremely personable and also very professional. My particular case was filled with extreme conflict. If you have a family law issue call Gina first. You Won't regret. Thank You Gina and your Team

We hired Ms. Costello for our daughter's divorce. She was unprofessional with her writing, grammar and punctuation in her court reports! Really bad. I have to re-do her work multiple time. She must have been working too fast, or dictating without editing. Many of her sentences and paragraphs did...n't make any sense. Her paperwork was never in order during court hearings. The judge commented several time that he couldn't find what she was talking about. The way she wanted us to work with her was quite manipulative to both parties. Sneeky, sly communication with the exiting spouse in order to catch him. Really not my style. She yelled at us a few times when the going got tough and we were frustrated. She even told the judge, in open court, that she smoked marajuana, in an attempt, I think, to minimize the act of using. She also told us that one of her visits was free, then later charged us full price for the same visit. With the multitude of attorneys in Spokane...no one should ever use this person for any legal proceedings. Never.
