Best lawyer in the world!!!!

I am going through probably one of the hardest times of my life... I have four kids and was completely lost when my husband abandoned us with nothing... I found Dawn through a site on social media as she was suggested by many as the best.. she has exceeded my expectations... she goes above and beyond... for her clients.. she is a fighter and genuinely cares and will do what it takes to help you in anyway that she can... I can't put into words how amazing she is but I can let everyone know on the internet and that I know so hopefully if they face the same struggles as me they hire the best!! thank you Dawn.. you have been our knight in shining armor!!!!!

Divorce case

I was recommended on by a friend. She was very cordial and detailed in collecting information necessary for our case. She did an outstanding job in court defending me as a husband in an extremely difficult divorce case. Her dedication and Devotion to her job is truly an asset to someone going through... a difficult time. I am really grateful for the help that dawn has provided ending in a good outcome. When you're going through extremely difficult time you want someone that will do a great job representing you, Dawn is that person.

Exceptional Same-Sex Divorce Attorney

An exceptional attorney in every regard. Dawn's integrity, honesty and her ability to UN-complicate the intricate legal proceedings and processes that are part of a divorce was of great comfort to me during THE MOST difficult time in my life. beyond her caliber as a legal representative, her billin...g was fair and exact ... and her staff was/is/continues-to-be beyond extraordinary. I cannot say enough good things about Dawn's representation of me and the clarity of her communications with me throughout my less-than-a-year-long divorce proceeding. EXCEPTIONAL attorney, period.

Exceptional Divorce & Child Custody Attorney

Ms. Green was fantastic leading me through the divorce and child custody process. She is a highly experienced and knowledgeable attorney who represents her clients with the utmost professionalism and integrity. I always felt like she was honest and forthright with me, providing a realistic idea of ...what to expect throughout the process. One of the things I appreciated the most is that she did her best to be thorough, yet efficient with her work, respecting the fact that the process is an expensive one and she does her best to represent her clients in an exceptional manner, without any time wasted (helping save money where it can be saved). I was comforted knowing that she was always fighting for my best interests and those of my children. I appreciated that she was willing to speak up when I was making a poor decision, guiding me in a better direction and teaching me how to navigate the process more effectively—she understands people, knows the laws, is very familiar with the system and will steer you in a good direction. Despite the mountain of challenges I faced with my case, I am extremely happy with the outcome and I have Dawn to thank! I would highly recommend Ms. Green to anyone going through the divorce and child custody process!

"For many years I have had the privilege of working on cases with Dawn. Without exception, she is prepared, thorough, and an excellent advocate for her client. At the same time, she has earned the respect of her peers and judges alike because she only advocates reasonable positions, and will work tirelessly to assist clients in understanding the process. I have quite frankly never had an experience with Dawn that did not increase my respect and admiration for her. I would recommend her, and quite frequently do recommend her, to anyone!"
