Gary is the best!

Gary helped me with a very complicated divorce. He kept me informed at all times, asked for my input, and helped me understand what was going on. A family member of mine recently went through a divorce with a different lawyer so I can now compare. Gary was BY-FAR a better advocate. You can trust h...im to do what you ask. If you want to drag it out, he'll fight for you. If you want to get it over with quickly he'll provide knowledgeable advise that you can use to make informed decisions. I would recommend him highly.

borders on incompetence

Mr. Eschbacher told me how much my divorce would cost me. It was 3 times what he told me. Several times when I met with him or we spoke on the phone, we had to go back over details we previously discussed. I had to anyone. His paralegal, Carol, is brash and has zero empathy. The mediator he chos...e was rude, arrogant, and at times verbally abusive.

Excellent Legal Advice and Representation

Mr. Eschbacher represented me in a very contentious divorce case that went on for years. My exhusband was a nightmare. I was a homemaker with few resources. Gary and his staff stuck with me through it all. They were professional and courteous, well prepared and knowledgable. He took the time to ...get to know me and my children, then represented us well. He had an excellent forensic accountant that did exceptional work. I came away with over 78% of our marital assests, which were substantial. Gary and his staff are top notch. I have recommended him to many others in need of excellent legal advice and representation.

If you are going through a divorce, this guy is your hero!

Mr. Eschbacher recently won a supreme court case for me on retirement benefits. During each meeting he never pressured me to leave even after I had taken up quite a bit of his valuable time with many questions, which he answered completely. He was always well prepared for court and made sure that I... was prepared too. Oh! Did I mention I was referred by a friend whose wives used Mr. Eschbacher during his last two divorces -- which told me he has a good track record.

Great Attorney

I was referred to this office by a friend who used Gary prior in his divorce action. I was a homemaker with no money and trying to represent myself as my husband controlled the money. I was over my head, stressed out and overwhelmed. My husband's attorney was loud, obnoxious and rude. She talk all... over me and the judge hushed her many times but she would not stop. I met with Gary on a Saturday for two hours at no charge. I hired him a month later. Guess whose crying every month while writing me a check, paying for my education and paying child support. You best believe it! My husband is!! Gary and his staff worked really hard for me and made sure I got everything I deserved from my controlling husband and his crazy attorney. They work together as a team although humorous at times. My friend hired Gary for a grandparent rights case and my friend won custody of her grandchildren .
