โ€œDerek and the whole team were amazing from start to finish! Throughout the entire process they were professional, knowledgeable and responsive to all parties involved. I cannot recommend this law firm enough! The peace of mind knowing every step was being taken care of with honesty and dedication is something I will never forget. Thank you!โ€

โ€œI have had the pleasure of working with Derek as co-counsel on several cases. His professionalism, and attention to detail set him apart from most attorneys. I highly recommend Derek to anyone facing a divorce or child custody matter.โ€

โ€œI wanted to take the time out to personally thank my lawyer, Derek and his paralegal Holly, for all of their help with resolving my three-year battle and finalizing my divorce. Both Derek and Holly were extremely supportive and professional. They gave me the right advice they assisted me with all of my documentation, and I ended up protecting myself and ending my marriage on a positive note. I would definitely recommend their services for anyone whoโ€™s up against a difficult spouse and a drawn out divorce. Thank you again for all of your help my children and I can finally put this past us and move on with our lives.โ€

โ€œWe hired Mr. VanGilder to handle custody and later an adoption for us. He and his office did an excellent job preparing the paperwork, arraigning the home study, etc. when we went to court, the process went very smoothly and satisfactorily. Since then, we have used their office for other legal matters. The staff is wonderful. I highly recommend them.โ€

โ€œDerek Van Gilder and his team have done an excellent job of representing us in a painful domestic and child custody matter. They listened to our needs and concerns and responded quickly. The attorneys and staff are prompt and very helpful in their communication with clients. The only reason I did not give them five stars is due to some inadequate preparation for one hearing that took place. All other court appearances and follow up were excellent. Would definitely recommend them.โ€
