These folks are great. They are professional in every respect. My family has used their services many times over the years. I didn't need to worry about anything, they handled it all. I highly recommend this law firm.

They were great when I was getting custody for my son and made a great deal with the courts.

Steer clear! Bad experience with Jon Golas. My partner and I were in agreement on almost all items yet Jon Golas had a Pattern of misrepresenting my wishes in multiple documents saying the opposite or inaccurate information which only made the situation with my husband more volatile. Created tons of extra billing and telephone conversations between his lawyer and mine over the inaccurate info. I was also charged for this inaccurate document without him offering to fix the mistakes. When confronted on the inaccurate information he said I was being critical. I asked to speak with someone in charge but never got a call from his father. He said our relationship was no longer cooperative and that I could pick up my file. Huge bill exceeded my $5000. I’m doing my own divorce agreement from the template on the judicial website for free and it’s accurate and only took me an hour as I am out of my current money.

Response from owner

This review is completely false. I filed all of the documents with the Court and drafted all agreements and delivered a draft final agreement to you. I gave you all of the legal advice, documents and agreements to finalize your case. Once you had all of the information and documents to complete your case you started to complain and ask for a refund.

We've used Golas, Golas & Golas, P.C. over the years for our mortgage closings and have never been disappointed. Professional, competent and trustworthy. It's great to support a local family business.

I used Golas, Golas & Golas, P.C. both in my original closing and recently for my refinance and both experiences were top notch. My latest experience Jon made himself available to come to my house and made the whole experience very easy for my wife and I. A great law firm who I will be using again in all my future real estate transactions. Thank you Jon.

Response from owner

Jon Golas recently closed on a refinance for us. He was responsive, professional and very friendly. I would recommend Golas Law for all your legal needs. Thanks Jon!

Mr Golas shows no signs of understanding family law at all. He was very unprofessional, as stated in another review be prepared to be talked over or down to if he does not like something, once another attorney who understood family law very well got involved in the case and told us to definitely fight like we wanted to and not sustain the otc as mr golas suggested we do his attitude became very poor, and it was clear he was too lazy to do his job and did not actualy care about helping us and just wanted the quick easy money without the work. There was no immediate imminent danger to our children witch needed to be proved for dcf to remove them and no matter how many times this was pointed out mr golas stood firm as "the past was enough". As anybody can see the past is just that the past and does not show any immediate imminent danger. Oh and lets not forget when he said "well i just met with dcfs attorneys and theyre good were not going to win this" (shoulda been my que right there this guy is a sham but i had already paid this guy thousands of dollars). Mr golas did nothing to work out the deal that was made and sat in the court room while the other attorney hashed out the entire deal. During the court hearing he said little more than introducing himself. The other attorney representing my gf basicly had to speak up on my behalf. A few days later when asked to send an email on my behalf outlining a few points that were a problem for me he simply fowarded my email. A few days after that incident he decided to call me telling me i should go pay another thousands of dollars on a retainer for another attorney when there was literaly one check in date simply show up make sure everyone is in compliance and the final court date to close the case. It was also at this point he said my retainer that would cover everything as long as it didnt go to trial was burnt up, but never told me by how much and said hed send the bill. Now id understand prep work charges for the case even though it didnt end up going to trial, but i found out much later no his billing was as ridiculous as his poor representation. At the follow up court date to check in to make sure steps were being followed witch they werent on dcfs part, once again the other attorney steps up hashs everything out again and during all this? I didnt even think he was there and planned to apply for a state attorney (witch the judge has to approve so i had to actually get into the court room to do this) when once again he just comes strolling out of the court room after not doind a damn thing. So that court date finishes, but not before hes almost laughed out of the court room. The next and final court date was set the day before a holiday and i have to work a day before and after to get paid for the holiday so i ask the judge hey i gotta support my.family can i be excused judge understands and well hey i have legal representation to be there on my behalf anyway right? Well this guy says oh well since my client is excused can i be too? Oh and since hes not above taking food out of my familys mouth, trying to bill me for every email (didnt even respond to most emails was just ccd on them) phone call and the intial counciltation that he said was free if you need a family lawyer i HIGHLY recommend Jill Alward. It was not attorney golas adv8ce to strike the deal and as stated he did nothing to work that deal out. Had i taken attorney Golas' advice i still wouldnt have my kids back.

Response from owner

Michael, I am sorry that the experience was not optimal for you. This case took hours of preparation time to ready for trial even though it ended with a very favorable settlement. Attorney David A. Golas, Senior's advice to work out a settlement was in the best interest of all involved, was agreed to by all the parties and was accepted by the Court. A full blown trial would have been extremely risky. Please contact us directly if you would like to discuss.

My family has worked with all of the attorneys. They went of their way to assist us with all of our concerns and needs. Have recommended their services to several of our friends.

I contacted Gola's Law firm for a "Living Will" for our family. The way they greeted my husband and me made us feel like very important clients. Their knowledge and professionalism made us comfortable in obtaining a "Living Will" from them. They were thorough and answered any questions or concerns we had in order for us to comprehend what the "Living Will" stated. I would highly recommend David Golas and his firm for all your personal and professional needs. You won't be disappointed. Thank you Gola's Law Firm for your Expertise!

Golas, Golas and Golas, P.C. has represented myself and my family for over 10 years in personal injury, real estate and estate planning matters. We have had the pleasure of working with all of their attorneys and staff. They are professional, courteous, responsive and, most importantly, successful. I highly recommend the law firm of Golas, Golas and Golas, P.C.

Horrible law office. Unprofessional, they speak over you and even hang up on you if they don’t like what you’re asking. Hired by our mortgage company, they’re guaranteed payment so they treat clients like garbage. Stay away!
