We we’re looking for a lawyer and we interview many of them before we found Mr. Gaxiola website. We did hire Richard Gaxiola because he was the only one lawyer who was honest, open and direct. We hired him because he honestly stated that we will not need his services , case is easy and we can win without representation. When he made this statement we instantly knew that he is a lawyer we want to represent us. Every other lawyer we spoke with before Mr. Gaxiola, was giving us horror scenarios and making horror stories. Not mentioned the amount of money they were trying to get from us. We highly recommend Mr. Gaxiola to everyone who need honest , professional representation, without need to take a second mortgage. Mr. Gaxiola is extremely pleasant to deal with, extremely knowledgeable, he is absolutely the only one we would ever hire, in case we will need representation again in the future. Mr. Gaxiola is prime example of a compassionate lawyer, honest lawyer, he is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He definitely knows what he is doing and how it needs to be done. Please read his website and other feedbacks . We will recommend him to anyone, anyone who needs representation. Our case got dismissed. Mr. Gaxiola- thank you for taking our case , thank you for your time and everything you have done. Thank you for being there for us. Thank you for dismissing our case. Thank you Sir. Your client for life -:)

I am very pleased with Richard's work, I am even more pleased with the results (AKA DISMISSED!). I was referred to Richard by a friend that had a case that was dismissed prior, not to mention, that friend was referred to Richard by another friend that also had his case dismissed as well working with Richard. so to say the least, I would recommend him. Its tough to find an attorney willing to fight.

At 60 i found myself in big trouble for the first time in a state i didnt live in and made one call to Richard Gaxiola and he saved my life! He personally returned my call within minutes calming me down and reassuring me he would take care of everything and this man stuck to his word!!! Not only did he take care of every single requirement and filed all the motions and pleads involved in my criminal trial keeping me involved in every step weather through phone calls or e-mails he also provided emotional support and compassion at a time i was totally broken assuring me everything would be OK and it was as far as a felony crime can be but i would be in jail or worse if not for Rich Gaxiola and all his hardwork and belief in me. He was able to plead my case down and also several charges were dropped. Thank you Rich! All the money in the world wouldnt or couldn't repay you for what you did for me..... . I thank Gaxiola Law with all my heart and especially Rich for saving my broken soul!

Rich did an exceptional job in representing my friend. He promptly returned our phone calls and accomplished all of the work he said he would do. In the end, the case was resolved beyond our expectations. Thank you Rich Gaxiola.

After getting charged with a case and talking with several attorneys, I was honestly discouraged and hopeless about my circumstances. I was then referred to Richard Gaxiola from a co-employee of mine. I called his number and he actually answered the phone. After consulting with him, I did not feel that I needed to go through this alone. He was thoroughly professional and obtained a realistic result that he projected he could. Thank you Richard for all your help. I definitely would recommend him to anyone for help.

Richard always told me the truth up front. No matter whether it was good or bad he never sugar coated anything. He fought for me and kept me informed of my case constantly. He was responsive to all my phone calls and is extremely knowledgeable about criminal law. Richard is one of the few lawyers in town I could trust and rely on! He doesn't just take your money but he actually fights for your case.

I am extremely satisfied with the incredible criminal defense representation I received from Rich. The level of professionalism exceeded my expectations throughout the process. During trial Richard was clear and concise with a powerful presence that commanded the courtroom. Thanks to Rich, I won my case!

I am certainly glad that we found you and that you took the case on. Your information you provided was always 100% dead on and you made it easier for us to understand what was going on and how to deal with both cases. Rich's advice on not one but 2 cases helped us and our son through a difficult time. Rich was only able to take on one of the cases, however he provided many answers and advice on the second case which walked us through using a public defender and getting all the required paper work to make a final decision. Rich took the initial case to trial, was always there during many court appearances to get everything done, he kept us informed of all the steps required, he provided an expert witness, and the case was dismissed as the officer did not appear due to Rich's due diligence. A very BIG THANK YOU RICH! We are a reference for you, if we run into someone who needs help we will send them your way for sure.
