"I want to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional guardian ad litem (GAL) service provided by Leslie Gilbertson during my recent custody case. The thorough investigation she conducted into parenting matters and domestic violence was impressive and deeply appreciated. From the outset, Ms. Gilbertson approached a situation that was inherently stressful and re-traumatizing with a level of professionalism that mitigated harm. She remained impartial throughout the process, which is crucial in such sensitive matters. It was particularly validating to hear her articulate her findings at trial, emphasizing the importance of ensuring my child's safety. Her commitment to standing up for the best interests of my child was evident, and I am grateful for her investigation during this challenging time. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Gilbertson to anyone in need of a dedicated GAL professional in similar circumstances."

"Andrea lang and he's team are amazing! I had a long road ahead of me. I was lost and in way over my head. As soon as Andrea stepped in, he made me feel at ease. Every time I called with a question, his team of incredible paralegals always had an answer for me. Every time I had a court hearing, I was anxious and very uncomfortable. Andrea always had calming words and always made sure I was doing okay. No one enjoys going to court for any reason but he went above and beyond what I was expecting from a family law attorney. Thanks to him and his staff, my family is safe and everyone is happy. A huge weight is off my shoulders. I could not have done it without Andrea Lang and his team. I can't thank you all enough!!!"

"Dropped a huge retainer and we have not had a single filing completed in time for my family’s case with Leslie Gilberston specifically. Communication is massively lacking. I’m charged for every time I email or call for an update that I don’t get. Be wary when they say they have the capacity for your case and expect to be your own advocate with the courts if you choose this firm, especially if it is family law."

"Leslie Gilbertson and team are stars! Thank you for taking this case on and steering it in the direction you did. Leslie picked out the essential issues around visitation and addressed the fundamental reality of where our grandson lives, has lived and will continue to live. Her presentation of each point in your argument was superb!"

"I would NEVER recommend using Leslie Gilbertson! The communication with her and her assistant was terrible, taking over a week to respond to an email and never available to take a call or wouldn't return a message. It took over 4 months for her to file court documents. All background checks required, were done before coming to her, all she had to do was file the paperwork. Poor follow up on service filed, delaying yet again. It took her 3 months to even touch the case, each time I inquired on the progress, I was told she was in court. I should have been informed upon hiring her, that she was backed up, I would have chosen another attorney. I should have listened to her bad reviews, I often read them and take them as a grain of salt, lesson learned! HORRIBLE experience!"
