Duana Jenise Boswell-Loechel's Reviews

Posted by Nikki | May 19, 2020 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Intelligent Compassionate Fighter for You

After going through 2 attorneys that created one heck of a mess for my divorce decree, Duana Boswell came in and worked hard to re-create a workable agreement that is better suited to my needs. She is knowledgeable in family law and experienced in difficult separations including those that involve ch...ild custody and/or domestic violence. I couldn’t ask for a better attorney. Boswell Law Firm took my anxiety away through the process and handled my case with integrity and intelligence. She communicated well and managed my expectations appropriately to avoid any surprises along the way. I definitely recommend Duana Boswell.

Great attorney, highly recommended!

Duana handled an important matter for me. Precision and tact were of utmost importance. I had entrusted my case to someone else before and was not satisfied with their performance. Duana’s charges were fair, she explained the process clearly and I was able to obtain a quick resolution of my personal ...matter. I can only recommend her to anyone facing a legal issue.

Excellent Lawyer

I hired Duana Loechel to prepare my will. She did an excellent job, and I would highly recommend her to others. Not many lawyers go the extra mile to obtain board certification, and it definitely shows since her knowledge was outstanding. I will be referring my parents to update their wills and a ...trust document. Thank you.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Smart and attentive at initial consult-good lawyer-bad firm

I wanted to hire Duana. She quoted me a fee of $3500 for my enforcement and modification of child support but when I returned to their office, Baily and Galyen to write the check they sent out the secretary to inform me that she had made an error and that they would in fact need $6000 to cover her se...rvices. I walked out.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
