The Firm
Gelber + Santillo was founded on core beliefs and guiding principles.
Lawyers are counselors first
That lawyers should return to their traditional roles as counselors and advisors, focusing on providing the best possible legal and strategic advice, not maximizing their own profits.
Civil Litigation
Resolution begins with planning
That dispute resolution begins with good business planning to maximize the chances of dispute avoidance. With this in mind, Gelber + Santillo provides dispute avoidance and dispute resolution advice at all stages of conflict — from assisting with business planning and contracts, to the initial stages of conflict and pre-litigation, to mediation, negotiation, litigation, and post-judgment enforcement. And when a dispute must be litigated, we litigate aggressively and proactively.
Criminal Defense
Aggressive advocacy, leaving no stone unturned
That a client facing a criminal investigation or charges deserves aggressive advocacy at every stage — from the first contact with investigators, through pre-indictment advocacy, trial, sentencing, and appeal. Gelber + Santillo leaves no stone unturned: we investigate the facts independently, test every part of the government's case, and begin building the strongest possible defense, and sentencing position, from the start of each matter.
