I have had the pleasure of dealing with both Mr. Buttigieg, Ms. Conte, and the rest of the staff for the past few months on a rather complicated family law/custody issue. I've been blown away by the service and level of preparation Ms. Conte has brought to every meeting. She consistently remembers and understands the minutiae of my specific case and has helped me immensely. Highly recommend.

Gaeten took the time to carefully walk us through and explain key points in our documents. Overall, he has such a positive character and is fun to talk with. It was especially appreciated that even during COVID, they took every precaution to make us feel safe and informed of any updates or unexpected delays.

I had an excellent experience with this law firm in the areas of family law, estate planning, and real estate. Their team is knowledgable, professional, and nimble. They consult with the client and really listen to her/him. They advise, but don't take over, focussing on their client's wishes and needs. They accommodate pandemic restrictions by providing video and teleconferencing options. Their prices are average, not the highest in town, although their services are of highest quality. I highly recommend this law firm!

Can't speak to the lawyers work but the elderly white haired estate clerk "Bev" was horrendous to deal with. Extremely short tempered and unprofessional to work with. She was clueless throughout the duration of our conversation, should have retired over 30 years ago as it seems her dementia is starting to set in. Stay far away from her as possible. Reflects poorly on the company as a whole.

I recommend the AGB lawyers for family law. I booked a 30 minutes free consultation with Gaetan Buttigieg that lasted more than 30 minutes, but the lawyer was a very respectful person and didnt cut me off once the time for free consultation was up. He was very honest, and helpful in providing me his advice and guidance. He responded to my questions respectfully and talked about the available options openly. He even referred me to another firm should I go with one of the options he explained. I found him a very respectful, polite, understanding, honest and open minded. I recommend him and the

AGB Lawyers, was a great, calming, informative and amazing firm. Even just a 30 minute consultation and they made us feel like part of the family. Eased our minds, knowing what our rights were and didn't confuse us with legal jargon.
