Giving Lawyers a good name :)

We contracted with Diana M Schobel to assist with a DLLR - Work Place Fraud audit. Ms Schobel was able to help us resolve this matter quickly, at minimal expense. She was efficient, professional, and very personable. Ms. Schobel was able to keep up informed as to the status of our case without res...orting to excessive billing. We were very happy with her and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her firm.

DMS Law Diana Schobel Excellent

In my experience there are very few people who go through the process of divorce and exit with the highest professional regard for their attorney. I am one of what I perceive to be the lucky few. Initially and most importantly Diana is responsive beyond any experience I've had with any attorney. ... In addition, even in matters where we didn't agree, I found her opinions insightful and well versed in both the law and the judicial process of the divorce. Her follow up with my ex-wife's attorney was relentless, which it needed to be. Her fees and efficiency in using her time were beyond belief. I spent amazingly less than anyone I've spoken to who has gone through a divorce. I found her initially on line and was glad to have done my homework before hiring. Diana Schobel has my full faith in providing a reference in both her skill and cost efficiency in family law.
