John was recommended to me by my ex-coworker in American Honda. I hired him to handle my divorce in 2005 and hired him again in 2014. Recently, he represented me in court and handled my defense when my Ex wanted a reimbursement of his child support. In both cases, my Ex-husband hated him! John is a genius. His level of intelligence, talent and knowledge are remarkable! He knows family law inside out while eating peanuts. He will defend you fearlessly and will make sure your case wins. You will be happy with the results. Without John, I probably would not have my kids, child support, and peace of mind. He paved the way for me to have a fresh start in life after a traumatic divorce. Now, after 8 years, I have remarried and happy. I have moved on. Thanks to an excellent lawyer named John Joseph Gilligan!

John Gilligan was the strength and clear-minded thinking I needed when I had none. He walked me through every step of my divorce like a father. His knowledge of the law and years of experience were instrumental in achieving the best end result of my case. I am grateful.

“My ex-husband and I initially hired a single attorney to handle our divorce. I soon began to question if this was a wise decision. I contacted the California State Bar for a Family Law attorney recommendation and they suggested I call John Gilligan. John took my call right away and spent a substantial amount of time on the phone with me answering all of my questions. Not only was John instrumental in the negotiating process, but he made me feel comfortable and safe (even when my ex-husband did not). The outcome would have been completely different if I hadn't hired John -- I don't think I would have been able to keep my home without his help. Thank you, John."
