Farhan Hassan

I want to send a note to thank you all for the excellent work that you all have done with regards to my legal issues. From the very first time I spoke with Farhan on the initial consultation, I had a very good feeling that I was working with a very professional and competent firm. Farhan did a gr...eat job of explaining the process and his plan to reach the goals we had for this case. The entire team was wonderful in working with me on the discovery portion of the project. I did not mention that I am over 1,100 miles away from their offices. Yet, the process went exactly as planned, and as smooth as if I had been living across town. The case progressed through Mediation and a Motion hearing, and I was completely at ease as Farhan and his staff were there with me for every phase, ready and well-armed with information, data, and excellent arguments to bring my case to a conclusion. I received the result that I had hoped for, and I am so appreciative of all the hard work and support that the entire team has provided as we took on this challenge and succeeded in termination of spousal support.

It was a pleasure working with Mr. Hassan and Miss Bryant. They were professional, courteous and responsive and, most importantly, helped me to meet my dissolution goals. I highly recommend Clausen & Hassan to anyone looking for experienced family law professionals. They will listen to you and get th...e job done.

I used Farhan years ago and I highly recommend him. I was living a nightmare with a parenting consultant and extremely challenging high conflict case that was dragging on and on over co-parenting conflicts. I consulted with over 30 attorneys who would not touch my case, but Farhan saw the need t...o get my family some sort of resolution. We'd been in the battle for 6 years! He was up front about what could and could not realitically be done and always kept me informed on every step. We ended up with a custody trial, which accomplished my goal of sole physical and legal custody for me. So many lawyers told me it was not possible to get that, but Farhan saw that the PC decisions laid out a case for sole custody. The great thing is that the custody change ended the battle, got rid of a meddling PC and my former spouse and I got along much better once the fight was taken away. It truly was the best thing for me, my children and even my ex. Farhan will take the hard cases, when other attorneys will not, and he will be honest with you. Farhan was my fourth attorney and he had to undo messes that were the creation of the three previous attorneys. I recommend him to anyone I know going through divorce or high conflict parenting issues. He will get the job done!

Mr. Hassan was perfect during a difficult time of my somewhat contentious divorce. He always treated me with respect, compassion, and professionalism. I discovered Mr. Hassan from a chance meeting with a distance acquaintance who highly recommended him. I'd been searching for and interviewing atto...rneys, not finding satisfaction. Mr. Hassan asked questions to seek real understanding from me and my goals. I felt heard when I spoke. Even more, he presented various options for my consideration. True advocacy! He didn't "lead" so much as he "delivered" me to a destination I desired as the best option from those he explained to me along the journey. Mr. Hassan always showed great respect for time and resources. At the same time, I feel he never compromised or missed what truly mattered. I genuinely looked-forward to my meetings with him. He made hearings immeasurably more relaxed for me. I never felt Mr. Hassan's ego or style ever eclipsed my goals. His impressive intellect and perspectives developed flexible, contingency plans during the entire process. My divorce was settled in mediation with his verve, grace, strength, and advocacy dismantled my unsavory stereotypes of attorneys. The opposing attorney embodied my negative stereotypes! Mr. Hassan always took the "high road" when the opposing attorney sought the "mud", expressed ugly boorishness, or absurd proposals. I was very proud to be associated with Mr. Hassan rising above it all... Keeping "it real" and mitigating drama in an already depressing situation. Confronting aggressive intimidation antics with grace. At times Mr. Hassan sensed my needs to regroup and collect myself in the face of changing proposals. He stopped the mediation process or a break; finding a private space to remind me of the plan, the perspective, and the means to the optimized goal - at the same time holding space for me to change my mind to stand my ground and escalate - but reminding me what would likely result from my decisions. That's Mr. Hassan's experience at work guiding me along what path I choose. Repeat: the path *I* choose. I felt in control with my advocate showing the pros-and-cons along with his opinion. True advocacy. True counsel. I can virtually guarantee satisfaction for any sane and realistic person working with Mr. Hassan. Search no longer... Mr. Farhan Hassan is fantastic.

I feel very fortunate that Farhan was recommended to me in what has turned out to be a very difficult divorce and custody proceeding. He is very knowledgeable, dedicated, and his experience in family law is evident . He has also been very fair financially and resposive as issues arise. Farhan and ...his paraglegal Heather are obviously well respected by their peers as well as understanding to what a difficult time divorce and custody situations can be for their client.
