I started working with Mr. Gerry Maggio in December of 2010. I was a few months into my divorce. Sadly, I was working previously with another lawyer that absolutely made the process ten times as bad as it already was. I was overcharged, treated disrespectfully, and was put in positions to shovel out more money for court appearances that could have been avoided. My stress levels were unbearable. I knew I needed someone else to represent me. I found Gerry through a radio referral program on KFI called “Handle on the law”. (It is important to note that there were only a handful of attorneys that were referred). I read some of the testimonials on his site, and boy, this was the kind of man I needed to represent me. Not only do you need a good attorney in what has definitely been the most difficult time of my life, but a friend as well. Gerry was both. I also really enjoyed my conversations with Susan. They were both empathetic to my situation and worked to resolve each issue to my satisfaction. In my line of business, you only succeed if you are trustworthy, dependable and honorable. Gerry is all that, which is why we worked well together. I found his fees to be reasonable as well, especially for the Newport Beach area. My divorce in now final, although I am certain I will continue to need his services going forward (I have one of those kind of Ex’s). I wish all of you reading this the best luck in your difficult situation. Your first step is to call Gerry. ~Scott

Gerry was so awesome. My divorce was so smooth from start to finish and he made the whole process painless. He definitely has my recommendation to anyone in need of a family law attorney. Hands down one of the best family law attorneys in the OC in my opinion.

Gerry gave me excellent support and guidance during my divorce mediation. He worked with us to get a solution and avoid the cost of going to court. He clearly explained the process and was very professional and patient during this stressful period. He was easy to work with and efficient, I did not experience any major delays or unexpected hours billed. I highly recommend him and would not hesitate to use him in the future.

Gerry Maggio is a knowledgable understanding attorney I feel so lucky to have found him. I was so worried about my case since I was living out of state during my divorce process. I couldn't be there for appointments but Gerry kept me informed through emails and voice mail messages and never once was I disappointed. He handled everything with care, concern and with the perfessionalism I was expecting. He kept me informed and was able to get me what I needed in my case with out an ugly battle. I was so impressed and will continue to seek his advice in the future if needed. Thanks Again Gerry!!

Gerry helped me through the most trying part of my life. He was there to answer any and all questions my family and I had even on the weekends. The case was resolved; I have started a new chapter in my life. To this day Gerry has remained a good friend.

Gerry Maggio is a good lawyer, he listens and is very knowledgeable in business. He helped me years ago and I have referred him to people, because I honestly believe he is the best!

Mr. Maggio filed a divorce case for me in late 2010. My husband then filed a competing divorce case around the same time in another, distant county, we then had competing cases to deal with. Mr. Maggio was able to ultimately resolve the case in one of the counties and have that case consolidated into the other case and then transferred to the county that I live in with my children. Mr. Maggio came highly recommended by a friend of mine who had been represented by him, he is easy to work and speak with. He doesn't just tell you what you want to hear, I appreciated his honesty after speaking with a couple other attorneys. I was very happy with my decision in choosing Mr. Maggio to represent me in my divorce. He explained all of my rights, all scenarios and options in my case, and negotiated a very fair result in my case. His staff was also enjoyable to work with. I would not hesitate to refer any of my family or friends to Mr. Maggio.

Thank you for the legal services that you have provided us over the years. Even though this custody battle is over, you worked hard to help me get our fair share of time with my son. I especially appreciate the personal attention and genuine care that you gave my case. At first I was dismayed at the fact that your previous law firm had assigned our custody case to yet a fourth attorney, knowing what a burden it would be for a new attorney to get a handle on the long history involved. Yet you persevered and learned the facts of our case inside and out and were prepared to do whatever it took to obtain a fair settlement. For these reasons, we chose to retain your services when you moved to a couple of different law firms. Afterward, where once we only had two weeks in the summer, we were given custody of our son a full one-half of the summer, not to mention the fair division of various weekends and holidays throughout the year. Continue to fight the good fight for others.

I retained Gerry about a year and a half ago to represent me in my divorce proceedings that were finalized in Feb. 2012. A friend recommended Gerry to me and I am glad I followed his advice. If you are facing the prospect of divorce, I strongly recommend that you hire Gerry to represent you. He is highly competent and has solid command of all the legal issues surrounding the typically contentious conflicts inherent in divorce cases. In my case we managed to avoid litigation and we resolved the issues with minimal drama. Gerry is a first class professional who served my interests and worked diligently to achieve an optimal outcome. I found him easy to work with and he was always willing to answer my questions and concerns. I trust and respect Gerry and I am happy to recommend him to anyone seeking a decent, reputable and honorable attorney.

Gerry Maggio represented me in my divorce case in 2011-2012, and my case went all the way to trial because we did not get a reasonable settlement offer from the other side. We were in trial for 2 days, which was very emotional and exhausting for me. I found Mr. Maggio to be an excellent litigator in court and represented my position assertively while also being very comforting to me throughout the trial. The court made its ruling which resulted in an outcome that was definitely better than I had expected, and I was very pleased with the resolution of my case. I was very pleased with Mr. Maggio’s representation of me in my case and I would highly recommend him to anyone

Mr. Maggio provided excellent representation to me during an unorthodox child support issue. He always provided me with the information I needed to make competent decisions that were in the best interests of the adult child and myself. Family law can be a very emotional process, Mr. Maggio possesses a very calm and reassuring demeanor coupled with the expertise to get the job done in a timely manner.

Gerry is a great lawyer, my divorce should not have needed attorneys but Gerry kept me informed, and kept costs as low as possible while protecting my interests. thanks!
