Hired Attorney Ms. Courtney Gilkinson

From the very first consultation call, I was extremely impressed with Courtney’s compassion and professionalism, solution-focus, can-do positive attitude and deep knowledge of the law in 3 different states impacted by my complicated adoption case! She and her team are both efficient and empathetic, trustworthy and ethical! They left no stone unturned and ironed out plans A, B and C for our approach. I always knew what to expect and felt very confident that Courtney was handling things in the best interest of my transgender son. She remembered all the small (but personally important) details and met every commitment! I will keep Courtney’s number on speed dial just in case I ever need her family law services in the future, and I would highly recommend her for your legal needs (divorce as well as adoption)... Courtney is fantastic in every way: She will work hard to ensure your best outcomes are realized, AND your anxieties are calmed and your mind is at ease along the way!

Hired Attorney Ms. Courtney Gilkinson

Courtney researched laws concerning counter claims and other matters raised by the opposing attorney and made clear that these and other matters were null and void based on 3 separate case laws. Courtney also entered other exhibits that were raised in real time and made other quick calculations in response to arguments in real time. In closing, Courtney argued against a very strong and seasoned attorney resulting in a very favorable ruling on my behalf.

Hired Attorney Ms. Courtney Gilkinson

Courtney was great to work with through my divorce. She took the time to listen to me and help me come up with different options, explaining the pros and cons of the options. This was a great help in working through the divorce. Looking back on the process, she was always looking out for my best interest and helped me avoid unnecessary expenses.

Courtney is amazing! She not only represented me through my divorce, she also made sure I was aware and understood every step of the process. I could not have asked for a better attorney!

Hired Attorney Ms. Courtney Gilkinson

I hired Courtney to represent me in my divorce proceedings after I became disappointed with my first attorney. The transition to a new firm went smoothly which was quite a relief. Courtney and the entire firm staff were very respectful, extremely responsive and focused on getting me a fair settlement. They listened to me and made me feel like we were true partners in the proceedings. I was extremely satisfied with the representation I received from Courtney and with the final divorce settlement.

I would highly advise anyone that cares about their children to not use this law firm. I hope this firm reconsiders their ethics and practices.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
