Experience and excellence

Mr. Dane did an extremely thorough job explaining our options during bankruptcy proceedings, as well as advising on a secondary suit. He worked with us with extreme flexibility, along with open communication, and took the time to explain, and made sure we were well informed and prepared. We were very impressed with Mr. Danes honestly and realistic legal counsel as it was detrimental to decisions made with our filings. We would highly recommended retaining Mr. Dane for counsel.

Mr. & Mrs. Boemecke

Harold J Dane III was referred to my husband and I by another professional. We feel blessed to have met such a great attorney with wisdom, knowledge and integrity. He is professional and to the point, and yet still offered coffee & gum with a smile .This difficult time in our life was greatly handled by a man who is truly honest, supportive and respectful. I cannot say enough about him for the short time I have know him, but I will refer him as a number one choice as a trusted and confident attorney. Thank you Jack and much success Jeff and Laura

Proactive Lawyer with Persistent Staff

We engaged Jack's office for Wills and Healthcare Powers of Attorney, and everything went smoothly and was priced fairly. We later engaged him for a real estate transaction, and received valuable, proactive advice. When other parties to the transaction began dragging their feet, his staff exceeded our expectations with their persistent follow-up.
