Dane S. Ciolino's Lawyer Endorsements
Ernest Svenson
Ethics and professional responsibility lawyer | Apr 07
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"Dane is a rare kind of lawyer. He has a broad skill set, and he is able to make full use of it in representing clients. He's extremely articulate, highly professional, devoid of pretense, and very tech-savvy. Dane is able to cut through the usual legal cloudiness and make crisp points that help advance his client's case. He doesn't make use of well worn phrases, and he doesn't follow well-worn paths. He thinks creatively and focuses on how to help his client in the best way, and the most efficient way. If I needed someone to represent me personally the first lawyer that would come to my mind is Dane."

"I highly recommend Dane Ciolino as a ethics and professional responsibility attorney. His Louisiana Legal Ethics blog and website (http://www.lalegalethics.org/) is a great resource for any Louisiana attorney, and he is very knowledgeable in the practice area. After all, he teaches it in law school! Not only is Dane a leader in this practice area, but he's also a leader in lawyer technology and running a paperless office."
