Review Jennifer Dane

Highly Reccomend!

Posted by

Jennifer and her team are hard-working, reasonable, thorough, courteous, and dedicated. I’ve been a client of Jennifer’s since 2011 and she has helped me successfully with numerous modifications in my very contentious divorce. She’s always patient with me and doesn’t sugar coat anything, which is a blessing. I’m grateful I found her and would definitely recommend her to everyone needing legal assistance.

Awesome law firm

Posted by

I had a nightmare of a child support case that stemmed back to a 2007 divorce. I now live out of state and so does my ex and due to the fact of the clerk of courts poor record keeping I had a astronomical balance of arrears. The Dane law group, specifically Sabrina was instrumental and diligent in resolving my matter and having my records updated, arrears removed,and my license reinstated. They were prompt and very professional every step of the way. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this law group to anyone with legal issues! They were AWESOME and went above and beyond in their efforts to help me in my situation.

Legal assistance /Divorce

Jennifer Dane was recommended by a friend who had been represented by Jennifer’s firm. From the first meeting with Jennifer to the conclusion of my divorce, Jennifer and all of her staff were courteous, professional, and supportive. This was a difficult time made easier by the demonstrated attributes mentioned above. I will gladly recommend this firm to friends and relatives seeking legal advice.

Long, Drawn Out and Worth It

Posted by

I started a very heated modification for timesharing with my ex-wife in 2016. I was initially lookong to increase my time-sharing with my daughter to a 50/50 split. After 2 grueling years I wound up getting her more than 70%, my ex moved over 5 hours away, my child support was elimknated and my ex now has to pay me. Jennifer was patient the whole time, even when I lost mine. She was strong and believed in our case. I can’t say enough and would highly recommend her to anyone needing representation.

Wonderful staff, and a lightning rod of a paralegal

Posted by

The law firm of Jennifer Dane Law was exceptional in the handling of my divorce. In times when i was extremely frustrated by how lengthy the process was, they gave the assurance that was needed to hang in there and told me not to forget about the big picture. They definitely do their research and due diligence when it comes to getting me all the necessary paperwork and pertinent information. The main cog in this finely tuned machine is their paralegal, Michelle Quick. Michelle ensures that of my documents were turned in, gives updates on progress, and most importantly, kept me in the loop. I would definitely recommend this law firm for anyone who is starting the process of getting a divorce or any family law matter, they will do right by you.

Very Proffessional, Knowledgeable, & Helpful

Posted by

Jennifer Dane's office was very professional, knowledgeable & helpful with my case. Anytime that I have called her office, they were always able to answer my questions. We met several times during each of the processes that she helped me with, and anytime that I felt that I needed to meet with Jennifer, she was willing to make time in her schedule for me. Jennifer and her staff did an awesome job keeping me updated whether it was by meetings, calls, or emails. She has helped me with several situations which was the result of a very bad divorce, and not having the proper legal advice in the past. Jennifer was able to correct several issues that was affecting not only my life but my kids as well. She has even been able to assist in making several new necessary changes that benefited my kids and my family. She was able to make changes when I did not believe it may be possible. I feel that she really cares about her clients and wants what is best for them, she even calls from time to time just to check and see how everything is going for my family. I will continue to utilize her knowledge and skills for any future issues that may occur. I am very thankful for how Jennifer and her staff have helped me. I would definitely recommend Jennifer Dane to friends and family.

If you need a fighter, she's the one!

Jennifer took a tough case and made it easy. I was told by numerous attorneys that my kids and I would not be able to move out of FL and back to LA. Jennifer made it happen! She proved that my children's father was not providing and helping. She put me at ease and always presented herself as knowledgeable and confident. Basically, she is AWESOME!

Lauren Brusca, Family Attorney on Mar 30, 2016
Relationship: Worked together on matter

I endorse this lawyer.

Erin Duncan, Divorce and separation Attorney on Mar 24, 2015
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

I have had cases against Jennifer as well as cases that she handled previously. In both circumstances I have found Jennifer to be assertive, well-versed in the law, and an effective advocate for her clients. I often find that I have to “pick up the pieces” when a prior attorney has not done a good job of identifying the legal issues or setting the client’s expectations. Jennifer has proven to be an exceptional adversary and a reasonable counselor to her clients. It is apparent to me that she cares about the families she represents and I would recommend her for any family law matter.

Donna Hung, Family Attorney on Mar 10, 2015
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I look forward to working with Jennifer when she is the opposing counsel in any family law case as she is professional while advocating for her client's best interests. I endorse this lawyer.

Christopher Sprysenski, Family Attorney on Sep 11, 2013

Jen Dane is a wonderful attorney, who brings a refreshing, practical perspective to helping her clients solve their legal issues. Jen takes a non nonsense approach which helps clients easily get through what can often be emotional matters. I would highly recommend Jen for your family law case.
