Lance D. Gill

Lance Gill is a lawyer who cares about your situation and will not only get you the best outcome possible, but he’ll also become a trusted advisor. I had an unusual divorce situation with huge financial inequity between my wife and myself. The case lasted about 7 months. I told Lance at our very fi...rst meeting that I did not want to be on defense, nor did I want to pay support or give up any assets. He kept that as his priority throughout the entire process, often pushing me to get the information he needed to follow through. This situation was like a chess game – we could not predict the outcome in the beginning, but could only make the best move possible at each juncture. He knew when to wait, and, when necessary, how to be very aggressive to gain an advantage. By the time we came to settlement, Lance had completely turned the tables and had her elite high-priced attorney entirely on defense. In fact, Lance had maneuvered us into a position where she would have to give up far more than I even wanted from her. That’s how good he was! Lance educated me on what the law could and could not do – he properly set my expectations. Then he asked the right questions to accurately understand my situation and my goals, and he never forgot them. He acted as advisor and confidant, keeping me on track when I went off the rails, and keeping me rational at a time when my emotions would surely have led to bad decisions. I could tell from the beginning that Lance actually cared about helping me. He truly cared about my situation and about getting a just outcome for me. Lawyers may have a bad reputation, but that’s not because of Lance Gill. It’s tough to be in a situation that requires a lawyer, because you have to commit yourself and your money to someone you just met. I can tell you, Lance over-delivered. You need to at least have a conversation with Lance Gill before you commit to hiring a lawyer.

I hired Mr. Gill to do my Dissolution. I had done a lot of prep work prior to consulting and then hiring Mr. Gill. He walked me through all of the process, and the only issue we had was a 3 week delay once we initially went to court, due to the court not accepting our financial records as submitted. ...This seemed to be more of a power struggle on who's form was correct, Summit or Stark county, and caused a small delay. Other than that, this was a very smooth process on a sometimes very difficult procedure as a marriage ends.

Lance Gill was wonderful to work with during my divorce. He kept me up to date on everything that needed to be decided and where things stood. He was always available on the phone, in person, or by email. He was not intimidated by the scare tactics of my ex husbands attorney and was an excellent guid...e through this difficult process.

To be specific, Mr Gill represented my divorce. Initially, I contacted a few other lawyers when I knew my divorce was imminent. The others wanted a fee for the first consultation. At this time, money was tight so I kept looking and came across Mr Gill's website (attygill.com). His philosophy on fees,... "I want to make a living... not a killing," convinced me he was the man for me. We discussed my divorce case that first meeting (Jan 2018) for about an hour. I was immediately at ease and knew I found my lawyer. He explained his flat fee for his time and it was very reasonable. He took the time to explain in detail the process he would work through to ensure I ended up with the best possible solution for me, but only after he had all the pertinent data necessary to provide sound legal advice. That was another selling point for me. He was not rushing through my case to move on to the next. Whenever I had a question, he was always available either by phone or email, which provided the necessary support I needed during this trying time. In the end, (divorce certified May 2018) he conducted my affairs with precision and professionalism every step of the way. I will keep his business card handy to recommend to anyone needing a professional to handle their affairs. You can not go wrong in having Mr Gill as your legal counsel.
