Professional, prompt

Ilana, her paralegal Maureen, and her fellow attorney Priya were all very professional. Their office is clean, well organized, centrally located just two blocks from the courthouse. I had a divorce with child and an open CPS investigation. It was acrimonious as you can get, mom was destroying as... much as she could on the way out. While the facts of the case were unique (seriously, your mileage may vary) ultimately our case resolved with me being granted sole custody which was absolutely the best case scenario given the facts. I was also able to keep the entirety of my retirement and stock. Ilana, Maureen, and Priya even worked with me on the subsequent child support case and securing records from my own case that I needed to apply for a federal grant towards my child's tuition which was a big help since we had a lot of rebuilding to do. I hope that no one has to go through a difficult separation like I did, doubly so if you have children, but Ilana was absolutely up to the task. You won't be left wanting for legal representation if you hire Ilana.

Good for uncontested divorces maybe?

Ms. Tanner has been my lawyer recently and was very supportive and responsive in my initial uncontested divorce but when things became contested, her ability to respond in a timely manner has been challenging at times and I had to seek a new attorney after I learned through other another attorney tha...t my case was not handled very well. For anyone seeking a strong attorney that has their back at all times and isn't too busy to focus on contested divorces, I recommend that they seek a different attorney but for simple uncontested ones, Mrs. Tanner might be a good choice.

FABULOUS LAWYER, would use services again!

Ilana helped me with my divorce when it started to turn into a messy child custody battle. My vindictive ex husband attempted to make things ugly with false allegations and lies, however, Ilana ended up getting things settled outside of the courtroom and the least expensive way possible. She is strai...ghtforward, does not sugar coat things and since she knows family law so well, she gives realistic expectations. I had a ton of questions in which she always responded lightning fast by email! She will never leave you hanging in the dark about what's going on with your case as she is very good at keeping touch. If it's not her contacting you, it's one of her paralegals who are also great. I recently had another suit filed against me by my "vexatious litigant" of an ex. I wanted to utilize Ilana's services again, however, she was all booked up since she's top notch. When I showed up to my court hearing, Ilana was there representing someone else but took a moment to speak with me. She genuinely cares about her clients. I highly recommend her for family law or civil matters!!!

Excellent representation

Ms. Tanner and her staff are the best! They handled my CPS issue timely and efficiently. She is now taking care of my divorce and I couldn't be more pleased. If you want a great nononasense attorney who is a bulldog in court, choose Ilana Tanner.

The best!

My children's mother disappeared with them the day I was supposed to start my summer visitation. I am living outside Texas and had to make multiple flights to Texas. Ilana and her team were able to help me get my kids and full visitation for the remainder of the summer. Without her and her team, ...I do not believe I could have gotten them. If you need an attorney who can get you results, hire Ilana!!!
