5.0 out of 5 stars

In an extremely contentious visitation modification case, Mr. Gast was not only extremely knowledgeable, but he was highly sensitive to the fact that it was proving to be a traumatic experience for all involved on our side. He responded every single time we reached out with a question, and was wonderful at checking in to make sure we knew what was happening at all times - even after hours and on weekends. It was a difficult, but extremely successful, journey that was made easier by Mr. Gast's expertise and support. We couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Mr. Gast helped me get what I wanted and more in a very difficult divorce. I was very worried and scared going through a divorce trial. However, Mr. Gast excels in the courtroom and I knew he was working hard for me and my family. He prepared me for what would happen in a trial and I felt at complete ease even being cross examined. Mr. Gast knew what evidence he needed from me and used it wisely in the trial. Mr. Gast has been a lawyer for a long time, so I trusted his judgment and everything turned out even better than I expected. He has a lot of experience working with judges and knows how to best present your case. Even with difficult witnesses Mr. Gast was able to get the key issues brought out, and I knew great preparation had gone into being ready for those moments. Throughout the trial I always felt that I had a great warrior on my side. On a lighter note, Mr. Gast is a great storyteller and can help take your mind off the trial. He helps you relax just by telling you stories that put your mind at ease. You can laugh with him and trust his judgment. I highly recommend Mr. Gast representing you if you?re going through a divorce, especially a trial divorce.
