Posted by Michele | February 13, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

HIGHLY recommend and would hire again without hesitation

I hired Ms. Keane for a child support enforcement/custody issue. She was so helpful, making sure I understood what was happening, what various things meant, and what "could" potentially happen. She never made promises that couldn't keep, just laid out possible scenarios. Her transparent approach was ...extremely comforting, especially when it involved my child. She gave me such peace of mind, on top of great legal advice/service. She listened to me, and just made me feel very comfortable from the start. I hope I never have to hire a lawyer again, but if I DO, I will not hesitate to hire Ms. Keane again

Dana is very personable, knowledgable, ethical, and responsive. She explained everything throughout the divorce process, and addressed all of my questions and concerns, resulting in resolution. I highly recommend her for your case.

Divorce Case

Mrs. Keane was extremely fast and precise, there were no issues or bumps with my case. She gave great advice and respected every decision that was made. She made the divorce less tragic and much more bearable.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
