Highly Reccomend!
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
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
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
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
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!

BEST ATTORNEY FOR THE WORST SITUATIONS
Jennifer Dane and her knowledgeable staff will help guide you through the process of family law and will give the support and knowledge of making sure your family and best interests are met. She has years of experience and a family which shows in her dedication and hard work that she puts in for your case. You will most certainly feel as if your case is the most important and will be satisfied with the results for a situation none of us want to be in. She has relationships with the judges and courts she works with and it shows due to the amount of respect given to her in the courtroom. I could never thank her team enough for all they have done. I was a father once broken fighting to have a life with my child and her office not only made that possible but I know have the life I had always dreamed of with my child. Sincerely A very thankful father.

Thank you for protecting my sister!
My sister was just starting out at her first job and was having problems receiving paychecks and documentation from her employer. The place was telling her it was going to be months and months before they could get her certification info to her, and that timeframe would have forced her to stop working until it came in. It can be scary when you don't know what to do in those situations! We called Jennifer, and within a week everything was settled and the certification was in hand! Unbelievable what can be accomplished when you have someone representing you! Highly recommended!

Outcome better than I could have hoped for
I received a traffic ticket and requested a hearing to fight it. I then realized I had no idea what I was doing. Attorney Dane took my case and represented me at the hearing. Not only was I was very pleased with the result I was very pleased with my attorney. I would recommend her and will not hesitate to call her again if I need representation in the future.

Save yourself the trouble and hire this one.
Mrs. Dane's office did a terrific job of handling my divorce case. Mrs. Dane made sure that I understood every aspect of my case and that I was fully informed before allowing me to make decisions regarding my case. She never bullied me into doing something that I didn't want to do however, she would explain her side of things if my choice wasn't in my best interest. Our correspondences was plentiful and timely. It seemed like the only time there was delay it was on my end not hers. Couldn't have asked for a more courteous and helpful lawyer. I would definitely recommend her to any friends of mine going through a divorce in the future.

I lost 273 lbs by hiring Jennifer Dane!
Yep...at least that's how much he weighed the last time I saw 'em! Seriously, hiring Jennifer Dane as my divorce attorney was one of the best decisions I've made - second only to deciding to get the divorce in the first place! Jennifer was professional, kind, and available. Even after the divorce was final, she continued to help me tie up some loose ends. I highly recommend her for any legal issue.

Excellent lawyer!
I was going through a very nasty divorce. My ex wanted more than I could ever afford and did everything to try and get it. Mrs. Dane did a great job on keeping my informed of all my options and of all possible outcomes. She never gave me any illussions of being able to get all I want as a Judge has their own mind and has final say. She recommended several things to help my case and was right on the money every time. She did a really great job for me and got me a very fair settlement which was even better than my best scenario. I will recommend her to anyone needing a great attorney.

Divorce and separation Attorney | Mar 24
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."
