Excellent Family Lawyer

Jacob Dannen is a highly skilled, knowledgeable, compassionate, and fair attorney. My family law case involved a difficult, challenging opposing party who refused to negotiate, respond to discovery / subpoenas / requests to produce required documents, and generally refused to cooperate with the legal... process. However, Mr. Dannen exhibited an ability to negotiate professionally and firmly, ensuring that I received the modifications I was seeking in my suit. He is very professional, and also easy-going and likable. I'm thankful that I had Mr. Dannen to represent me during this stressful and frustrating time.

Good communicator, friendly, effective advocate

Mr. Dannen picked up my case from another attorney who left his firm during the pandemic. He was able to gather all relevant details efficiently and gave me great advice even during our initial phone consultation. He was able to tell me, based on which outcomes were most important to me, whether medi...ation or court would likely be most productive for me. I went with mediation because I was asking for some non-standard items, and I was able to get those done as a result of taking his advice. During mediation, Mr. Dannen advocated on my behalf and was also reassuring about the process. He is very personable and immediately establishes good rapport with clients; he showed good rapport with the mediator. I would definitely recommend Mr. Dannen to a friend and/or use his legal services again in the future..

Amazing experience

I contacted Jacob to do a name change for me. Jacob and Ashley are both extremely professional and really know what they are doing. They were able to complete the entire process for me in less than a month without me doing anything. They kept me informed through out the process and even refunded some... of the money. I will definitely use Jacob and Ashley for any other future needs. They are rock stars in my opinion and I would highly recommend everyone to use them.

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."
