I ❤️ Dawn

Dawn is easy to communicate with and tolerated kindly my many questions and ideas. I wanted to actually understand the process and feel in control of the situation. I also wanted my 11 year old daughter to feel she had a voice. Dawn listened to us and guided us through the process. She was very promp...t in communication, and got down to business while also being friendly and open. I found the billing to be fair with no surprises. To this day she respond to my email within hours for follow up questions. Our court case was settled one year ago.

Made the best of a bad situation.

Dawn was great! She made sure I understood everything and explained all my options. She always responded to messages in a timely manner and was very professional and polite. Dawn was super helpful during my trying time.

Exceptional legal assistance

Dawn drafted my divorce papers, allowing for a quick and efficient process. She was knowledgeable on all aspects of the subject, showing thorough attention to details. Willing to work with a few revisions as changes arose, Dawn customized the paperwork to meet all my needs. I went to my hearing well...-prepared thanks to Dawn's council.

Kind and professional

I felt very taken care of during my divorce. Dawn really made me feel as though I was talking with a friend rather than consulting with my attorney. She absolutely gave me every option and allowed me to decide what course of action to take next. I hope I never need to hire her again, but I would! I w...ould recommended her to anyone!
