Divorce

Jacob and his team helped me through the whole divorce process and kept me in the loop the whole time.

Best Of The BEST ❤️

Jacob was always professional, honest and supportive. From the consultation to the final hearing he was very thorough and on top of his game. As a father, it is a frightening battle to fight for custody for your children and there wasn’t a time that I felt that he ever gave up. He was transparent and... his and his teams communication skills were subpar. I will always recommend him, no matter what the case is!

Jacob Dannen & Key Law

I should begin by saying that I had utilized two other lawyers initially, but the best results I had in my case were only obtained by Jacob Dannen. Jacob handled my case and all the changes promptly and swiftly and genuinely cared about the case and the outcome at each turn. Jacob communicates ...updates very well and works to build a strategy with you as the client, not a universal premade case strategy based solely off passed case experiences. Your situation is likely unique to you and should be treated as such and with Jacob, it will be. Not only would I recommend Jacob and his team at Key Law, I already have, twice... and both of those referrals I already know are also in great hands and receiving the help that they needed.

Trusted Attorney

I consulted and hired Jacob Dannen to represent me during an adoption case. Jacob was willing to take on my case and help us every step of the way. His communication and expectations were always clear and honest. I recommend Jacob to anyone who is needing representation and is looking for an attorney... who will work hard and fight for them.

Made it super easy

As a young single parent, this entire process was extremely intimidating and stressful. Jacob took time day after day to explain everything and help better paint a picture for an end goal.

Family lawyer | Jun 08

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have had several highly contested family law hearings with Mr. Dannen that have lasted several days each time. Jacob was well prepared and represented his clients very well. My dealings with him as a co-professional in the area and community are very good. He responds quickly to requests and doesn't play games as he looks for what is in the best interests of his clients. I would hire him if I needed a family law attorney. Jacob is also very involved with the local Bar Association."

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.
