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.

Relocation Petition

I hired Attorney Ginine Hanco almost 4 years ago. My case was one one that had been turned down by numerous big name attorneys in the Ft Myers area. In fact Ginine took my case from an attorney that took my retainer and decided to no longer practice family law after 6 months of no activity. Relocatio...n cases outside state boundaries are nearly impossible to win. Ginine was empathetic to my children and I. She was more importantly 100% dedicated to my case and my childrens future. Her knowledge, professionalism, and passion for children won my case. She is not the hot headed type of attorney to spout off in the courtroom which is extremely important. She will get her point across and will argue to win. Ginine was able to help me choose the battles that were worth the fight and not be petty out of spite. I was able to give my daughters their wish and I could not have done it without Ginine by our side. My case even went to the State Supreme court on appeal and was denied an appeal as it was handled properly. Relocation cases are complex, but Ginine knew the statutes inside out. I would highly highly recommend Ginine Hanco!

Experienced Family Law Representation

Attorney Hanco represented me during a very contentious two year long divorce and custody disagreement. During that time she gave me sound legal advice and pointed me towards several resources which have remained useful tools I used long after the final judgement was issued. Calls and emails were re...turned promptly and information was forwarded in a timely manner. I always felt confident that the person representing me cared about my case. In fact, during our trial, the judge even commented in open court that my attorney had emphatically represented me during the pre-trial meeting in chambers and more than earned her fees for the day. Not only would I say I would recommend Attorney Hanco to others, I already have.

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."
