Client-Centered Legal Representation
    "He Was Very Professional and Addressed My Problem in a Timely, Cost-Effective Manner"
    Two thumbs up! I sought Mr. Gigstad's services for my driving infraction. I contacted Mr. Gigstad and heard back from him that very day. He was very professional and addressed my problem in a timely, cost-effective manner. I trust him completely and highly recommend him!
    Kelly
    "Very Respectful and Understanding Throughout the Process"
    I contacted Gigstad Law Office when I found myself being charged with a DUI in the state of Kansas. Although I've used other lawyers in the past for other types of legal situations, I've found, much to my disappointment, that they can often be flaky, or lacking in timely communication and responsiveness. I found that Mr. Gigstad was just the opposite. His rates are reasonable, he didn't drop the ball when I needed immediate legal advice, and was very respectful and understanding throughout the process. I would definitely recommend his services.

    "Robert Assisted Me in Doing Something I Didn't Know Was Possible"
    Robert assisted me in doing something I didn't know was possible - finally putting a bad decision I made 14 years ago behind me. Although I appreciated his professional and respectful approach to his work, I hope I never need his services again. If I do however, I would not hesitate to call him.

    "I Would Highly Recommend Giving Robert a Call"
    Robert was very easy to work with. He took care of my speeding ticket for a very reasonable fee and had the ticket amended down to a non-moving violation so no points against my drivers license or insurance rate increases. If you have a speeding ticket in the KC area that needs to be dealt with, I would highly recommend giving Robert a call.
