Impeccable Attorney

Ryan is a true professional in every sense of the word. I went to him with a very complex divorce case that also involved a completely false criminal charge. He did everything in his power to not only get me away from a vindictive spouse, but also recommended a personal friend to address my legal i...ssues. If you need an attorney who will always have your back, and is an absolute, relentless beast in the courtroom, you need Ryan Lane. Highly recommend!!!

An outstanding attorney that is a credit to his profession

Was introduced to Ryan by a lender when closing a real estate closing over 15 years ago. Ryan took his time explaining the HUD statement and answered all of my questions and was compassionate knowing I understood all of the details. He has since represented and closed several other investment prope...rty purchases. In addition, I have use Ryan to represent all of my Landlord Tenant actions and other legal affairs. He is very approachable and always a professional. The legal matters Ryan has represented my affairs, he has always been successful. If the legal action required a court appearance, Ryan is an excellent representative that always has my best interest at heart. I am amazed at his preparation prior to court and how he represents himself to defend our case. He is extremely knowledgeable and to remain on top of his profession, Ryan is the only attorney I've known that continues his education by attending education seminars and classes to remain a head of other attorneys that have become complacent. Also, Ryan has networked with other professionals to resolve any issue to always be successful and professionally represent me. He is my go to attorney! I would without any doubt recommend Ryan to my friends or anyone searching for a professional attorney.

Do not hire Ryan Lane.

I hired Ryan Lane for custody. He failed me miserably many times. He would miss appointments, show up at last minute for court appearances completely unprepared. Failed to talk to any of my witnesses prior to trial, therefore he was not prepared to question them properly. Signed incorrect court order...s, advised me poorly. Advised me not to show up for a hearing and after showing up anyway I found out that the hearing wasn't cancelled and he was there. He caused my case to be closed amd I had to start all over. If you go to his office you will observe total chaos as he takes anyone that walks through his door, and will push you aside to obtain new clientele. I am stuck in a mess and because of his failures I have no recourse but to live with the courts decisions. He is cheap in price...but you get what you pay for!! Search for a better lawyer and whatever the charge it's worth it.

Do NOT hire Ryan Lane

Ryan Lane did not do any part of the job required to be a good lawyer. He completely dropped the ball in every way in my divorce. He did not file appropriate motions, signed orders that were incorrect, and was always late to court. Once, he failed to show at all. He did not return phone calls timely,... if at all. His office is an unorganized mess and he takes as many cases as walk into his office. DO NOT hire Mr. Lane as an attorney. He was the worst decision I could have made.

Out Standing, Quality Lawyer

I was a witness in a case, where Mr. Lane represented a defendant, I knew. I found him to be professional, organized and a true credit to his profession. Mr. Lane is to be commended in handling of a very hostile plaintiff who screamed, yelled and kept going back to charges that the Judge dismisse...d. Mr, Lane had more grace under pressure than other lawyers that I have dealt with in the past. If I ever find myself in need of a lawyer, I will run not walk to his firm and know that my case will be handled with the utmost professionalism and quality that anyone could ask for.
