Excellent Divorce Attorney - Hire Him!

Met Dane on the eve of filing for divorce, which at first, looked like to be a regular amicable divorce. So far so good right? I quickly came to the fact that shortly after I filed for divorce, my ex became totally irrational, vindictive. Her drinking and her pill popping did not help. I have alwa...ys heard that in Florida, women get more sympathy from the judges and men always get the "short end" of the stick. Well, I am one man that got a fair shake, and I have the thank Dane for that! Dane is an EXCELLENT, TRUSTWORTHY, KNOWLEDGEABLE, RESPONSIVE ATTORNEY and not only he supported me both legally and emotionally through a divorce which became very difficult, but he also clearly described options and strategies which he executed flawlessly. Extremely well versed and very knowledgeable with Family law, during this stressful process, Dane answered my all my questions and concerns timely and patiently. I appreciated his expertise and "on point" professional approach. I was not only happy with the outcome of my case, but can rest my head on my pillow at night knowing that I did right. It did not come cheap, but at the end it was well worth it, and 9 months later, I am FREE! If you want to be properly represented by a PROFESSIONAL attorney, DANE LEITNER is your guy! I give him 5 stars and I HIGHLY recommend him and his firm.

Reasonable and practical

Mr. Leitner provided reasonable advise and level-headed guidance throughout the course of my divorce. In addition, his super-efficient staff managed the paper flow in a most courteous and friendly manner.

Saved my closing

Had some last minute surprises when purchasing my new home. Dane and Cathleen came to the rescue and reviewed all of my closing/deal documents on very short notice, created legal documentation and answered numerous questions in addition to advising me on potential risks. Great, reliable service for... a great price. Will definitely recommend to others and will use them on my next home purchase from the very beginning of the deal next time!

Professional, Knowledgable and Quick to respond

Dane was recommended by a family member that had met him through a business networking group in the area. Being this was my first marriage and my first divorce I did not have any knowledge of the process. Luckily for me Dane and his legal assistant, Emily, were there for me throughout the entire proc...ess - responding to any questions or concerns I had quickly and in a language which I could better understand as most of us do not speak in legal terms. Going through a divorce is already hard enough that is why I am glad I chose Dane to represent me. Dane and his legal team always was sure to stay in close communication with me on any new updates and to respond to my email requests quickly. I would absolutely recommend Dane to any friends and/or family seeking a divorce attorney. Dane and his legal team are professional and provided me with the knowledge to make the best decisions necessary in terms on the next steps to take. Thank you again for all your help!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Attorney Leitner litigated a case against a Florida condo association almost five years ago. His draftmanship and legal writing is stellar. I was using the complaint he drafted in that case as a sample for a somegthing I'm working on. I sought his advice about what to do as it pertains the appointment of a receiver. He is very good in condominium law. He responded in less than 24 hours and gave me some guidance. That kind of civility and professional courtesy is hard to come by in this area. This is the kind of lawyer I would hope would represent a friend or a family member. Highly recommended."
