Poor Representation

Attorney Hanco represented me in 2010 through 2012 in my divorce. She failed to prosecute the case in any professional manner. She destroyed my divorce case on day one in the courtroom by making very poor legal decisions that were in opposition to initial pleading written by her senior attorney and c...ompletely against my best interests. Not knowing any better at the time I trusted Ms. Hanco and the Men's Right's Law Firm in Cape Coral to continue their work. Ms. Hanco never seemed prepared and was constantly outperformed by the opposing counsel. After running up the bill for tens of thousands of my dollars and having no trial date set, Ms. Hanco was eventually terminated by the firm and I terminated my representation by the Men's Rights Law Firm. She contacted me and I allowed her to continue her work in her new firm, thinking maybe it was her old firm's fault the case was so mishandled, but she produced the same failures in her work. I again terminated Ms. Hanco and prosecuted my own divorce case in court with no clue how. I was able to schedule the trial and get successfully divorced in 2013 against the same opposing counsel Ms. Hanco could not even get into trial. I now have Sole Parental responsibility for my child. I reported this unprofessional representation to the Bar and in response, the attorneys took no responsibility and blamed me for their failures and lack of competence.

Hooker Divorce

Ginine and her Para Legal Milly were very courteous and helpful as I went through the divorce, returning phone calls and e-mails in a prompt manner. Milly guided me through providing information requested by the court and my wife’s attorney, and kept me informed of upcoming requirements. Gennie expla...ined the process and we discussed strategies and posable outcomes. She allowed me to express how I wanted the divorce to be settled then formulated it into the legal terms for presentation to my wife and the court. Divorce is not a fun process. Ginine and Milly made it as pleasant and stress free as posable. I would hope others don’t have to go through it, but if they do, I strongly recommend using attorney Ginine Hanico. Robert

Ginine Hanco is the Right choice!

The best decision I made was to hire The Men's Rights Law Firm. Ginine Hanco was exceptionally knowledgeable of the Lee County court system and very understanding of my situation. I feel that she gave me great advice and without her, I could have ended up paying a lot more alimony. Her paralegal, ...Milly Blanco was also very helpful and prompt. Milly kept me informed of every step of the process. I feel that the retainer fees are reasonable, and the bills were very detailed to 0.10 hr. The time charged for each item was very reasonable. Here's a tip for you, the better organized your paperwork is, the less time they will spend preparing the documents. Overall Ginine and Milly are a great team! I highly recommend them!

Men's Rights Law Firm

Best decision and investment I have ever made. I won’t lie. I was afraid and skeptical, when I had to face the situation that I was put in. There are many law firms that specialize in Family Law, but I was looking for something to have some empathy when it came down to the human-relation aspect to t...he attorney-client relationship. I was lost. I came across the Men’s Rights Law office number by chance. I decided to schedule an appointment just to hear where I would legally stand, what my real options were, and just to sort the wheat from the chaff when it came to paternal rights. This might sound funny (hopefully not sexist), but when I was offered the initial counsel, I specifically asked for a female attorney, reasoning that as a woman, she would be able understand and call the “bluff” on the opposing parties legal claims, women emotionally-based reasoning and point-of-view…and how right I was!!! I was informed that I would be working with attorney Ginine Hanco and her assistant Milly Blanco. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to have in my corner during one of my most trying times. They were always fair and honest. They were always constantly updating me on the case status. Milly made sure to always keep me in the loop of things, which is very important in situations like this. It helps put one’s mind at ease, were patience is paramount. They are a very responsible and professional legal team. Not only did Attorney Ginine Hanco assisted me redact and develop a very fair Paternity and Child Support (for the minor involved), but she got me everything I requested…and more!

Answer to our prays.

When no one else would take our case, she was the one who took the time to listen and represent us. She worked out case for five long years and never gave up on us or the case.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I have had the pleasure of working alongside Ginine Hanco since joining the Men's Rights Law Firm back in January. Since that time, I have come to know Ms. Hanco, and it is very clear to me that she is very detailed and knowledgeable when it comes to Florida Family Law. Moreover, she is a respectful colleague and has a very approachable personality, which I believe may be helpful in facilitating settlement. However, if your matter is highly contentious, I believe Ginine displays the required tenacity needed to adequately represent her clients."
