When you have family problems or people who are just looking to get you into trouble, the best solution to everything is to have a good, experienced attorney to represent you in any situation that may come your way. Mr. Gil Colon speaks Spanish and English very well, he represented me and helped me during these 3 months in court. He was very clear in the whole process, and also the professional work team that works in the office, Mrs. Natalie and Mrs. Valerie are always willing to answer any questions and work with me at all times. Thank you very much. As I said before, representation from a good attorney with many years of experience and working with you is very important in a court case. Thank you very much, Mr. Gil Colon, for your support and help. I recommend The Law Firm of Gil Colon, Jr. for any problem you may have. Thank you very much.

I met Mr. Colon at a very difficult times of my life. I was charged by a poorly educated polk county sheriff’s deputy with a bad felony. This crooked cop has lied and faked evidence. Mr. Colon exposed all of it. From the first day he offered me a free consultation to the day my case got dismissed, I lived a worry free 2 years, even so facing with up to 25 years in prison, just knowing Mr. Colon is my guardian angel. I really feel myself insulted by those whiners claiming Mr. Colon does not communicate enough. My short answers to those whiners is, you pay the guy to do a job for you and offer you peace. You don’t pay the guy to talk to you. Please hire a mental health counselor or some sort therapist for the matter if you just need to talk to someone. I met the most gregarious and the most concerned human for his clients in Mr. Colon, the most professional and most respectful human I ever met in my life. Mr. Colon will not rest until he gets the best of the best for his client. Highly recommended, very affordable for the work he does. Thank you Mr. Colon and god bless you, your family and your wonderful team I met in your office

Gil Colon did not communicate effectively and spent most of his time with me joking around rather than discussing my case. He was disrespectful on more than one occasion, did not have a handle on the basics of my case, and seemed distracted most of the time. I did most of the work on my case; Gil Colon even acknowledged I did most of the work. I believe he does not work well with female clients; just my opinion.

My husband was arrested with a vop we thought since it was his first violation he’d get reinstated we’ll no the state wanted him to do 270 days in jail followed by a 3 month program just like jail. We hired Gil colon 14 hours before court. He showed up not only got my husband released but probation terminated and he is a free man! I would recommend him over anyone!

Mr. Colon has helped me and many others in and close to my family in court and we have always seen nothing but the best results! He helped my brother in a difficult time of his life and prevailed in court, going up against strong prosecutors and fighting them all to help my brother. In the end my brother was a free man and we are still in disbelief that Mr. Colon went above and beyond for our family. We recommend him to anyone in need of true aggressive representation. His experience and professionalism, integrity and determination for his clients is unmatched!

Mr. Colon is aggressive and very professional. We took my case to jury trial and by all means I have no faith in the system, therefore I honestly thought I was going to lose and have to go to jail for a year. Mr. Colon believed in my innocence and fought aggressively & professionally. with that being said the jury came back with a non guilty verdict! We won! Mr. Colon is the real MVP!

I don’t normally take the time to write reviews and although words cannot express my gratitude toward Gil Colon I thought I would take a few moments to say Thank you. I was recently in need of a lawyer to represent my son. After doing some research I picked what I thought to be the top three defense lawyers in Polk County. I was looking for experience in and out of the court room, reputation (since I know a lot of people in Polk County I ask around), and maybe most importantly I wanted someone honest and to be personally involved in the case. I got all of this with Mr. Colon. After speaking with him for 5 minutes I knew he was the lawyer for us. We were honest with him and he was honest with us. He got personally involved and got the facts of the case. As a result all charges were dropped. From my experience, Mr. Colon is personable and yet extremely professional. So Gil, I hope I never need another lawyer but if I do, you will be my first choice even if I need to bring you out of retirement. Thanks again!!

Mr. Gilberto Colón showed great excellence beyond our possibilities; always helped me, and always defended the truth at all costs.
Mr Gilberto Colón is a lawyer of excellence saying it's okay when the world cries, "Impossible!" Life challenges, stimulates the soul and excites the mind. But the excellence of Gilberto Colon was always defending the truth.

In 2013 of June, I was arrested by a former business partner who accused me of crimes committed and shortly after I was arrested in Georgia then extradited to Florida to face my charges. I was charged with 5 major felonies of theft and related crimes of theft. The experience of being charged, jail time and being under investigation was the worst experience I have ever faced both mentally, physically and spiritually. My wife and I hired Mr. Colon while I was in Georgia and all along the way Mr. Colon and his team comforted, gave direction and kept us up to date with what was going on. My wife and I knew from the beginning I was innocent and that the charges filed against must have derived from lies. After investigation by our Lawyer Colon our conclusion of foul play by the supposed victim was correct, my former partner not only screwed me out of a business I built, he lied to the cops hoping to damage us, hurt my family and screw us further financially. Even though Mr. Colon knew by my documentation that I was innocent he did not play around with the cops and state attorneys office because corruption and unfair practices exist in the legal system, Excellent representation are always a must. Mr. Colon took my case serious so he was very thorough with my documents, witness's and knowledge I presented to him. Mr. Colon is not just an attorney he proved to me that he has the legal smarts, exhibiting above normal in his common sense, and was wise concerning how to deal with the state attorneys office, the victim and assigned judges to my case. Mr. Colon knows how to think from both sides and move accordingly. He definitely has a plan from the get go on how to protect you, represent you, and slowly but strategically reveal the truth. All of my questions when asked were answered if not immediate they were over time. Mr. Colon was sensitive to my needs, made me feel that he was not just looking for money but that he was in my corner, he gave me attention to detail in areas I thought was important and that we requested. Mr. Colon as an attorney is still alive and breathing as a PERSON having Godly feelings and thoughts, he is not dead from the heart up. If you are in need of an criminal attorney I recommend Mr. Colon, He is not cheap but neither is jail time, dragged out investigation, scared name and or lack of peace. All of which cost you something.
