Posted by Brooke | March 13, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Blessing!

Mr & Mrs. Dennis were nothing short of a blessing! They were so understanding and kind. They truly went above and beyond for our custody / adoption case. We are so grateful for their support! They not only gave our case their all but they were extremely helpful financially. Always working with us in ...a pinch. I appreciate this practice so much! And of course Gabbi was such a doll and pleasure to speak with as well. Thank you so much! If you want the job done and done throughly, I highly recommend!!!

An Excellent Family Lawyer

I hired Mr. Dennis to assist me with the termination of child support. From the beginning I was pleased with his professional, yet friendly and very forthright communication. He also offered me a reasonable fee without minimizing his services. Throughout the process he kept me informed with the progr...ession of the motion in a timely manner. His effectiveness and experience have been satisfying. My motion was granted in a short period of time and I am very happy with the result. I will keep him in my list of attorneys for future needs and I am very confident to recommend Mr. Dennis to my family and friends.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
