Satisfied with Outcome

Overall Dana accomplished the goals I set with her when I hired her. As a lawyer, Dana has proven to me that her 20 plus years of experience in divorce law was the main reason I won in my divorce case. In court during the hearing and eventually the trial Dana prepped me ahead of time and performed v...ery well and resolved the divorce in my favor. The only thing to note is in order to have consistent communication outside of the courtroom, I needed to take the initiative to contact her either by phone, email or meeting in person. The only advice I would give to others is to provide Dana with any and all documents related to the divorce case, so resolving the divorce after the divorce is decreed can go more smoothly.

The worst

This person is a terrible person she is lazy and doesn’t care about her clients at all doesn’t answer the phone or communicate

Posted by Augustina | June 29, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Run and find yourself another attorney

Doesn’t communicate Wasn’t prepared Didn’t prep me for my temp order Didn’t ask my spouse any question Didn’t come with fact, no discovery was done I didn’t know how much damage she had done until I hired a new lawyer who had to do so many clean up work within a week. She even refused to t...ransfer my information. Even my ex (the defendant) said your lawyer really messed you up

She made me win

She was spouse’s lawyer. She came unprepared, it was obvious that my wife had the upper hand but thanks to her lawyer, she lost. She didn’t prep her. Didn’t discuss with her. Even told the judge she has too many cases. She didn’t ask me questions. She threw the case for her client.

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.
