Gibson Law Offices - Novato (CA)

1 /5 Mike Campo: I hired Wendy on August 2024. She told me this was an easy case. She did about 2 1/2 hours of work and she disappeared for 3 months. After repeated phone calls and emails, she never responded. I even contacted Parker-Stanbury to help with the situation. I was assured twice that she would call me, but she never did. She was very unprofessional. At least have the courtesy to respond to your clients. long story short, I terminated the contract and I filed a complaint to the State Bar of CA.

1 /5 Tony Montana: I hired Wendy Gibson as a child support attorney. Im not working and funds are low. I needed her to modify a current court order. I paid the retaining fee of $2500. After documents were emailed to her a month went by and I hadnt heard anything. I left several messages and no response for 2 weeks. I contacted legal shield who referred her to me and they also tried for a week to contact her. When she finally contacted me back her response was " Sorry Ive been in trial for the last 8 days"... Understandable, I know people are busy. That doesnt explain almost 2 months going by and not even returning my phone calls which I thought was common courtesy. I cant explain how embarrassing it is to contact child support a month after youve paid your attorney and they tell you no attorney has contacted them. Due to her negligence of my case my tax refund and disability was/is being intercepted by child support. Until I can have a real attorney modify my case. The best thing she has done was fully refund my retainer fee. Even though it took a week after I said I wanted a refund and her response to my reminder emails was less than professional. Example " ok I got it" and "I didnt bug you this much" to name a couple. This is by far the worse experience Ive had not only with an attorney but with any business. If the well being of your children, funds or time is not a priority then I highly recommend this attorney.

1 /5 Nancy Riess: I only used Wendy Gibson because she was part of my Legal Shield connections. She did not spend sufficient time with me explaining things such as how to properly serve my husband his papers - the correct time of courier to use. Secondly, she send my financial information through the mail - - twice. Neither time did I receive it. She was nonplussed about my concern of financial information floating through the air. When I went to pick up the information at her office - and I told her I would be coming - she was very flustered and muttered that "I was like this from the beginning". She FINALLY upon my request sent it Federal Express. She misspelled my name several times in the documents and missed other points. My recommendation - find someone else.

5 /5 Vanessa Esparza: I had to find a new attorney on short notice for a complex custody case. Once I contacted Wendy she jumped right in and filed a supplement/declaration right away. Her and her team did great work sorting, and compiling all of my supporting back up and I had TONS. I’ll share an update after our hearing.

5 /5 Adam McDonald: This is the second time Wendy has represented us. The first time was years ago during a custody battle with my wifes two kids and her ex-husband. It was messy and stressful. We fired our first attorney and hired Wendy. Wendy went in fighting tooth and nail and was able to accurately and thoroughly convey all our concerns and main points to the judge. Thankfully we were able to settle out of court because of Wendys help and drawing up the negotiations and agreement. This year we sought out help from Wendy again, this time to help us terminate a 3 year contract that we were unfairly and unjustly being held to after our children were experiencing disability discrimination at their karate school. Wendy again, thoroughly researched our claims and wrote the necessary letters to close the account, something we attempted and wasnt successful in doing ourselves. Now, we will be seeking her to advise us on our living trust. She does it all and we are so thankful and blessed to have such knowledgeable, proactive representation when we need it!
