This lawyer also tries to encourage and makes statements to people who don't know any better I did not want to have to "go after" my spouse, but he continued to push me to make things harder on both of us. His wife is rude and also. His responses are weak and he tried to boast. He is unprofessional and I DO NOT recommend him to anyone try to deal with, an already difficult divorce.

Sometimes it really matters Who you know. I have no idea what the other reviewer is talking about. Joe and his highly effective and supportive staff are worth 10X the fees they charge just based on who he has over to his house for BBQ's. LOL This is the ONLY defense attorney to hire in Redding if you have potentially serious matter in Shasta County Court. Do not make the mistake of hiring any other attorney. FYI I paid more than the other person and knowing what I know now, I would have paid double! Bottom line when your life (Literally, 25 to Life) is on the horizon Joe Gazzigli is the ONLY person to hire. You will need his staff to help the powers that be see things differently in your favor. TRUST me.... charges were never filed in my case. Most attorneys would have waited until charges were filed before doing anything. Joe and hi staff were able to head things off before they technically started. I hope this review helps someone they way Joe Gazzigli helped me. Thank God that I was lucky enough to hire Uncle Joe.

I can only speak to my personal account of Ms. Lauser's representation in a Family Law matter…read more I've had 5 different family law attorneys in Shasta County. She was the worst one. Positives: She is a friendly person to speak with while she represents you. Negatives: Her knowledge in family law is inept. I was financially injured due to her negligence of a piece of property I bought prior to a marriage that my ex claimed partial ownership that was a complete lie. It was a rental property. I hired a forensic accountant expert who provided a very detailed report protecting my property. However, what Ms. Lauser failed to do was ask me for my bank statements on my rental property and submit those as evidence in trial even though my tax returns and rental statements shown that in fact I was telling the truth that my tenants paid for my rental property. I was financially injured by almost 20k and I paid Ms. Lauser almost 10k to represent and defend me. Did that happen, absolutely not. I hired another lawyer to correct her negligence and submitted those bank statements in a post-trial motion to vacate the original judgement of my rental property. Shasta County Court basically told me it was unfortunate that Ms. Lauser's misrepresentation resulted in this injury, but that ultimately, I was the one who hired her and it was too late since we already had a trial. In the end, I paid her almost 10k to misrepresent me and then lost almost another 20k because of her ineptitude of family law; thus my ex prevailed on her lie and was rewarded a good lump sum of cash. If that sounds like a great deal and you want the same experience as me, then hire her.

I've been in a divorce and child custody battle for over 10 years. My case involves complex interstate issues and the most notorious and underhanded attorney in the area. I've had several other attorneys over the years and none were equal to the task. Ms D'amoto took my case and is finally more than a match for its complexities and her opposing council. Most importantly, she has treated myself and my family professionally and with compassion. Frankly she restored my faith in attorneys (I'm from the medical field which operates on an entirely different ethos). I can not recommend her strongly enough.

Do not come to Carmel D. to be your divorce lawyer. She is hard to get hold off, whether its email…read moreor phone, and when finally she picks up phone, she was always in a hurry like I felt like I wasted my time preparing what to ask her and express my concerns about the divorce process. In the beginning like your 1st day when I spoke with her she made me feel like she is the right Atty for me and my children. The divorce took over 2 years and longer, she is always busy and will not give you a straight answer. I felt like at one point, she was collaborating with the other party's lawyer. Again, find another lawyer to represent you because she is there just to make money and not to help your situation. I am very dissatisfied with her!
