HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

If you need a family law firm, this is your place! I seriously couldn't recommend more. I can’t thank you both enough. Seriously. With the last-minute jump in and a major hearing just around the corner, I never would have had a chance of getting out of this mess without you by my side. Nisreen and Il...ana at the Law Firm of Ilana Tanner went above and beyond, stepping into an incredibly complex case with very little time to prepare. From the very beginning, you made me feel supported, heard, and understood, and that means more than I can express. I’m feeling so many emotions right now, but above all, relief and gratitude. Your transparency, guidance, and unwavering support helped me navigate some of the most stressful moments of my life. Ilana and Nisreen, when I was overwhelmed, you were there to offer calm and practical advice. And when I wasn’t being as reasonable as I should have been, you kept me grounded with your wisdom and compassion. Most of all, I’m deeply grateful for the care you both showed in considering what was best for my daughter and our family’s future. You not only secured the best outcome for her at this time, but you did so without pushing anything that wasn’t reasonable or unnecessary. You also set up the right steps and a solid plan for the future. Knowing that my family’s interests were truly heard and respected gives me such peace of mind. Thank you again—truly. I could not recommend you both more. Your support changed everything, and I will forever be grateful for all you both did.

Great Attorney and Child Advocate

I’ve had the experience of working with Ilana Tanner for over a year, while she worked as the Ad Litem for my family members. She’s smart, diligent, conscientious and does what’s needed for her clients. It’s never easy in custody cases as one party ends up not getting the time or custody they desire.... Look for client reviews, not non clients affected by the case. Ask about Ms Tanner’s experience protecting children, ask other attorneys about her reputation, ask CASA and you’ll be extremely happy with what you hear and see with Ms Tanner. We were clients and happy to have found/worked with a brilliant attorney.

Fantastic consultation

This is actually a review for Katie, who works with Alana as a paralegal I believe. She's who you'll talk to before speaking with Alana. I had a few conversations with Katie, at no charge, about my case and her advice was so helpful. I was very confused and scared before I talked with Katie, but she ...pointed me in the right direction and gave very sound legal counsel that put my anxiety at ease. I was blown away that she offered this advice even though she knew that my case probably wasn't something Alana could help with.

Highly recommended: Ilana Tanner

Tanner came highly recommended by the president of the Travis County Women’s Lawyer Association. With a challenging situation Ilana took on my case in the middle of proceedings and was skillfully agile in her ability to assess the status and move forward quickly. There is no exaggeration in how qu...ick Tanner began to work. Within a month of placing her as lead council on my case I was authentically represented and awarded rights that were legally mine. This was the beginning of a monthly cycle of progress being made on my case until the matter was majorly resolved. I highly recommend Tanner for matters that require a knowledgeable professional who is quick on their feet. Last I would like to highlight the skill of active listening found in Tanner and her team at The Ilana R. Tanner Law Firm. Not only did I feel heard by her team as they worked on the many details of my case, other professionals involved felt heard as well. The state, medical and family members involved in my case all complemented Tanner in how she “let them speak” when interacting and responded in kind. I have found it is common to have issues with counsel who do all the talking and forget details that are major to the represented but minor to the representatives and judges. Tanner breaks the mold in this area. She will hear you, your family and the professionals working on your behalf. She will answer calls and formulate needed responses in a timely manner. For this last reason, I again, highly recommend her for all legal services and support her efforts professionally whatever they may be. Ilana Tanner is an attorney in Austin who reflects well upon the people, the court and the judges of this city.

The help you need when you need it

Ilana and her wonderful team helped me through one of the most difficult and scary moments of my life. Her confidence, knowledge, and just the right amount of humor helped get me through. Ilana is professional, knowledgeable and efficient. Her team was available for questions and helped to guide me t...hrough our options and the process. Her office is welcoming, comfortable, and easy to access, and it is only a block or two from the courthouse (we all walked to the courthouse together on the day of my hearing). Parking is readily available at the office. As a father who is ready and willing to fight to the end for my kids, Ilana has been a great partner to help me when I needed it. I hope that I don't find myself needing her services again, but if I do, I know where to call.
