Dzenana Delic and Susan Hais

If you are facing a divorce you are in good hands with HHG and Dzenana Delic. Susan did the Initial consultation and gave me great advice on the beginning, when my ex tried to take the kids. And how to fight a sole custody attempt. Then Dzenana Delic took over my case and I cannot really express how ...good of a job she did. She told me the truth and what would happen and what I needed to do. It was a long case that was conflict laden to say the least. When it came time to negotiate and settle the case is when I realized how great of a decision I made and how great Dzenana was at her job. We negotiated a great settlement and protected my rights as a single father. If you are facing an ugly divorce and you aren’t sure who to hire I can tell you that if you choose HHG and Dzenana Delic you will be in good hands. Dzenana always answered emails and followed up. I’ll never forget the way I was represented and defended.

The Best Attorney

I came to Susan when I was kicked out of my home by my husband. She explained everything she could do to help me get what I need to be able to live independently and happy. Susan fought hard for me against my husband’s lawyer. I ended up with more than I ever expected!! Susan and her team are the be...st!

Never Ending-Hope for Tomorrow!!

I want to thank Susan and her staff- My life fell apart quickly after 20yrs of marriage. I remember her telling me everything was going to be alright, I didn't believe her at the time, she proved to be more than right! She did not waste my time (as I had none back then with 3 children and full tim...e job and attending school) The right questions were asked and advise on the things you would not thinking about- long term (kids college...etc.) (just want to get through the now) I've been divorce 10 yrs. now and still she is helping with issues that arise from the divorce (bitter man). I would not have been able to maintain my families life style without Hais & Hais. The knowledge and expertise that this firm exercise helps with the process that no one wants to go through even when faced with the fact of divorce. Friendly and fair!!

Professional

I am currently in the process of divorce. So far my meetings with Susan have been quite encouraging. Both conversations left me feeling relief. Her office staff and legal assistants are also very professional and available. I read a review stating she made suggestions the client would never do. Yes, ...Susan made a suggestion that I declined to take, but only due to timing. I wish I had gone to her PRIOR to leaving my home. I would have taken her advice. Advice no one ever gave me before and I didn't know was an option. They have not done or suggested anything that seemed to be financially fueled and there are plenty of opportunities to do so in my case. They even talked me out of one idea stating it wasn't necessary. While I have already noticed my husbands lawyer doing unnecessary things that will increase HIS costs. I highly suggest meeting with her prior to acting if you are thinking about divorce. It is a free consultation, but she spent a very significant amount of time with me. I will update my review after the divorce is final, but, so far I have been smiling!
