Family Law

I will continue to use Mr. Borgmann. His straight forward no nonsense approach is exactly what I needed in my case. An excellent eye for detail and quick thinking make him an easy choice.

Excellent Professional Lawyer

I hired Mr. Borgmann for my divorce proceedings 3 years ago. He continues to represent me through custody issues. He is very knowledgable, straight to the point and is well respected in the lawyer community. I have been very happy with how our court hearings have turned out and because of his 30+... years of experience he usually can give me some ideas of what kind of outcome will be, which is reassuring right before you enter court. Mr. Borgmann has done anything he can to resolve my family court issues and does so also keeping in mind money concerns. He has been upfront with costs and also works efficiently to give me as much lawyering for the money you pay. He also is quick to respond to calls or emails and answers questions throughly. I am very pleased with the success in the family court system using Mr. Borgmann to represent me. I have recommended him several times.

Calm, Consistent Guidance

I've worked with Dan Borgmann with both my personal affairs and business needs for around 10 years now. He has given me consistently solid guidance that has made the tough decisions and difficult moments of my life much easier to navigate. His experience and to-the-point approach has been extremely v...aluable to me.

Great to work with when things are really difficult

Mr Borgmann helped me when my ex-husband passed away and I had to deal with the ex-inlaws. It was such a difficult time for me and Dan handled everything perfectly.

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.
